Unfamiliar Faces

Walking from one place to another
Do you ever just simply
Wonder about the people we pass?
Wondering
Whether to look upon them?
Wondering
Where are they heading?
Wondering
Whether to look them in the eye?
Wondering
Whether the look in their eyes will show…
A Secret Thought
Pain, Sadness,
Happiness or Joy.
Wondering
What do you see in me?
Wondering
Do you see…
My Secret Thoughts
My pain, My Sadness
Or is it Happiness or Joy.
Wondering
Should I care what you see in my eyes?
Just like that
The unfamiliar face is gone.
A new one appears.
Wondering cycle begins again.
