Weekend Words

Window

She looked the part

confident, outgoing, fun

But they could not see

what she saw

The workings in her mind

The window she looked through

She pulled thoughts in

and then sorted

This one here, that one there

Creating order from the mix

Satisfied, she shut the window

Content for a time

in her solitary space

But then

needing air,

her window was flung open

To the world
