The Unanswered Question

So how do you really know?

And, Iam speaking about relevant things

like life for instance; the creation of it.

People.

Friends.

 Real or fake ones, and that whole bit.

But the one thing I am the most curious

is about love.

What is that?

 How do you know?

When will the right person come along?

I stand alone, and am in awe

Looking around me

all I see is pollution in the sky,

smokers lighting up their fifth for the day,

but, than, I stand there

and one thing will catch my eye instantly

A man, and a woman

looking into eachothers eyes,

deeply, and soundlessly,

smiling at one another

almost as if they have'nt seen eachother in decades

And so I stare,

but feel a rush of feelings

I know not of what they truly are

But they are existant

at the pit of my stomache

and my heart starts pumping irregularily

and then i look away

and everything goes back to normal

The photograph of us in my head slowly vanishes

like nothing ever happened.

I look back at the happy couple

walking hand in hand

and I can't help but wish

and crave that i was that person

being adorded

being treated like a princess.

And so now here I am

 I leave how I started

with a simple question

How do you know?
