The Blade of Grass
Amongst the millions of others, she does not compare
The slumped shoulders and insecure shrug
The restrained cry and forced composure
The hidden tears and lonely stares
Are only thousands of the hints which she revealed with care
Everyone else is bigger and louder
Everyone else is brighter and higher
Everyone else is faster and stronger
Everyone else is ready to be exposed
Without anyone noticing, she holds qualities of her own
The neat surroundings and covered shadow
The blocked blaze and cool interior
The meaningful whispers and latent actions
All which lack significant attention
The field is too big
The field is too blind
The grass is too green
On the other side
Yet for some reason, everything will be alright
