Through the eyes of
my friends
I am the sweetest,
the kindest person you would ever meet
I am always there for them
I am always available to listen to
The midnight yelling
The sobs of depression
Through the eyes of
my co-workers
I am the sassy,
but funny colleague
I am always there to assist them
in any way
The time-consuming projects
The customers that give everyone frustration
Through the eyes of
my family
I am always the one to get
stressed too easily
I am the baby of the family,
both literally and metaphorically
The cries from loss
The yells from annoyance
Through the eyes of
Myself
I am the failure
I am the crybaby
I am the mistake
The cries over stupid stuff
Like homework or doing bad at bowling
The multiple grades, that weren’t up to par or
Being overlooked thanks to my siblings
Through the eyes of many
I am a bright spirit who has a bright future
Through my eyes
I am a wandering soul in
an empty, hauntingly concrete tunnel
with no escape
Through your eyes
what do you see?
