People Don’t See

People don’t see it when they look at you, that sometimes in that mind of yours, you secretly wish that you were a pirate, an actress, a rebel, a spy, or that you wish you could sing or solve crimes, like Sherlock Holmes.

People don’t see it when they look at you, that sometimes in that mind of yours; you’re secretly in another time period. You wish you could have been one of the first to see a Shakespeare play, see Elvis or Sinatra perform, or see the fireworks on July 1st 1867. Whether it’s the Renaissance, 1800’s, the 20’s or 50’s you secretly wish you were there.

People don’t see it when they look at you, that sometimes in that mind of yours you allow yourself to believe in the impossible and that you sometimes find yourself praying for a miracle.

People should see this when they look at you and you secretly hope they do. That you are a friend to anyone and everyone who needs one, that you are a student, prepared and organized. A daughter and a sister, an annoying sister so you’ve been told many times.

And though you secretly wish all those things, it’s no secret that you are the happiest right where you are.
