the people around you

I'm jealous of the people around you today

the ones that got to watch you walk by

or sit nearby

or the ones that saw you smile

or walk into a room and fill it with life and joy and light

or the ones that got to talk to you

to hear your voice and your laugh and watch your eyes when you smile

 

I'm so jealous of them all

because they were so much closer to you today

than I was.
