Perspectives
I wipe my glasses.
What do you see?
Reflections-
I see:
Red skirt
Zebra-striped tights
Pretty necklaces
Navy green vintage tank tops
Loud-
Interested-
Swimmer-
Popular-
Hangs out with her friends
HER.
Not me.
Or maybe-
But I am
plain-
short white socks
jeans
puppy t-shirt
and glasses
book-nerd
quiet
Sees the world through a different lens
Are we really different?
Yes
She says she sees：
good-grades
calm
reader
serious
talented yet shy
amazing-
She wears crop tops, I wear baggy jeans
She goes out, and I stay home and read
She has brown eyes, I have dark ones.
She is curious, while I’m cautious
She is challenging, while I’m friendly
She is energetic, while I’m calm
She is bold, while I’m shy
Different-but same
No
That’s true-
we all feel
like having an inner storm when we are having a bad day
lucky for getting chosen to be with our best friends
feeling appreciation for our loved ones,
having a poetic, grey ball of thoughts during rainy days
I wipe my glasses,
Yes
maybe
no
No, that’s true-
When our personalities and appearances are the opposite, so distinct yet familiar and sister-like, so close I feel like I can reach out and grab it
On the inside
hearts beating.
Differences in perspectives.
