Search.

Look.

Find.

The train's steam clouds the platform

Her bags are light in her hands.

One is big

One is small

One is green

The other is purple.

Confusion clouds her vision

A constant searching for something

A constant struggle against emptiness.

Her bags, light as they are, contain nothing.

Yet they should

Yet they must.

There is no time to waste

She must quicken her pace.

For the urge to find

Is quick on her mind.

Faces.

Familiar.

She knows them yet they have no name

Sees them yet they have no face.

But how can one, in a place of familiarity

Be so lost?

They look distressed

Not at their best.

As if they too search for something

As if they too cannot discover their purpose.

Their bags are empty yet they know not what to fill them
with.

And in that moment

A man stopped before her

Studied her face and asked:

"Do you know him?"
