Walking

When I walk, I feel as though all eyes are on me.

As if I'm important enough that they would turn their head and think, "She's such a mystery, I want to know her."

I feel as if I walk with purpose.

Tall, strong, unbreakable.

That I have an aura that screams I'm everything they want and need. A yearning to know me and discover the deepest corners of my mind.

But when I'm alone I know I'm just a speck of dirt on the bottom of their shoe, overlooked and unimportant.

Validation is what I seek, something I'll never possess. That desperate grasp for someone to tell me I'm worth it, that I'm everything they've been searching for or even a small piece of it.

This is actually harder than I thought it would be, writing poetry. I'm usually more of a novelist kind of gal but I thought broadening my horizons would be beneficial.

Enjoy & let me know what you think! 💕
