I see you
Red lipstick
Trendy haircut
Sitting
Straight backed
In that polka dot dress
Matching heart shaped sun glasses
Propped casually on the table
Cheesecake in tiny bites
Coffee in tiny sips
Thumbs on phone
Looking busy
But
Sneaking glances
Desperately trying to project
Something
I am interesting
I am unique
I am different
And deep
And maybe
Maybe you are
But then
So am I
And she
And he
And we
Them
We are all stuck
Muddled
In the purgatory
Of being
One in a million
And
Just one of the millions
Exceptional
And yet
Not the least bit
Exceptional
And for all our grasping
At individuality
We never find ourselves far
From feeling
And doing
And being
So much like
Everyone else
I see me
Glossed lips
Striped shirt
Match purposfully
With red cropped pants
Sitting
Straight backed
Steve Madden bag
Flung on the table
Thumbs on phone
Looking busy
But
Sneaking glances
Desperately trying to project
Something
