Mirrors
I see a couple walking together and holding hands.
Their footsteps in sync
Each fully in tune with the other
They are genuinely happy.
They make direct eye contact,
And they laugh together.
I can feel their aura.
They glow with excitement.
This couple
Seems to be in love.
They walk right past another couple.
The woman
Has arms wrapped around a man’s waist
Her head
Buried so deep in his chest
Her face is invisible
Her shoulders move Up
And
Down in constant rhythm
She is sobbing.
The man has one arm wrapped tightly around her waist.
Pulling her closer and closer into him
He feels her
His other hand
Grips the back of her head comfortably
As he whispers soft words in her ears,
His eyes quietly fill with tears.
This couple
Seems to be in pain.
Isn’t it interesting?
A moment of joy and happiness for some
May be a moment of pain and sorrow for another
