She stares off into the distance

She stares off

As they walk

She stares off

And

Behind

She stares off

In the same direction

The same exact place

Everyday

And

She stares off

When going to and fro

With little explanation

But if

You nicely ask

Perhaps

In an

Alternate universe

And

Completely different dimension

She'll

Politely lie

And say

That way leads to home

And is worthy of a glare

But that's not the truth

So

I'll say it

Only right here

& now

She stares in that direction

As she strays from friends

She stares at the scout hall

And thinks

About sitting on the roof

A beer in hand

Or just something cool

Against the hot metal

On a summers day

Overlooking the houses

And traffic

And she dreams

Of sitting there

With someone

Beautiful and complete

Someone who she loves

And loves enough

To throw around

Words like fate

Even though it would never be

She thinks

That if she stares

And dreams

Maybe one day

They'll be looking back too

But that won't happen

So she puts it to rest

For the day

And sits down

Now a part of the pack

But not there

As she's staring again

Now at Mount Disappointment

As narcissists think it is so aptly named

And dreams

About another dream girl

And how they'd hike up

And tell jokes

And laugh

Breathlessly

She dreams about staring out

From the top

Even alone

And

Ever so half heartedly

Disappointed

Because

People can't see the beauty

And

Can't sing the love she has

Buts it's just a dream

She has none of that

Really

And for the most part

Thinks it's dumb

But

Most isn't all

And there

There are still parts

That lead astray

And stare off

Daydreaming

Hoping to find love

In a day

Or

One day

At least

And to have it perfect

Even if it doesnt exist

And

Is

Only

In

Her dreams

Or

Mine

As you could say it
