what do you call silence
loud with meaning?

walking along the edges of the
blank spaces sketched around
the map of your world –

the doors you never opened
the numbers you never dialed
the paths you never took

the vast possibilities and alternate
universes buried all around you

the people you pass everyday
bridges connecting realities
crumbling and fading
into the background

like the lights in the distance

or from a window of a plane
climbing into the night skies
each little speck of light -
a vast reality just as complex
as your own

with hopes and dreams and love and
fear and pain and happiness and hurt
and heartbreak and mistakes

maybe the living room is empty and
she just left the lights on while she’s
crying in the bedroom in the dark because
she received a phone call that the person
she loves wasn’t coming home that night
or ever again

but you will never know
because she’s just a little speck of light
from your plane window

and she’ll never know your story
because you’re just a little speck of light
shooting across the sky
