A twinkle in the stars
A wink from their left eye
A bouquet of fresh flowers
A wave from the star of the play.
A desire taking form
A song played at the moment that is right
A lyric touching your heart
A rainbow appearing in your sight.
A hug from a friend you have missed
A moment of stardom on the stadium's big screen
A written letter sent your way
All things that can make us feel seen.
External circumstance and validation
Physical, tangible, stemming from the.
If those pieces withered away
Within ourselves, how would we be?
Do we see ourselves, ourselves?
Do we see, hear and know?
Do we understand what makes us tick?
Do we understand what makes us flow?
From the outside is seen the tangible
The depiction that we portray.
On the inside, do we know
That we ourselves can lead our way?
