The art of SEEING
You see things
You observe your surroundings noticing the overlooked
The girl that sits in the corner
She is looking nervous
You know why
You see things
why just last week you saw that girl
that girl that always sits in the same corner
get yelled at by her father
For no reason
You see things
She flinches so hard
When people try to get close
And when they see her flinch
They laugh
You see things
The things that everyone overlooks
or doesnt want to see
so you sit with that girl in the corner
because
She sees things too
