Quietly Phenominal

Quietly Phenominal

A Poem by Guernica
"

Who are you?

"
Who are you?
Not just who are you,
who ARE you?

Maybe you're the funniest person in your family
Or the only person in history to say that exact arrangement of words
You might of even been the first person in your town to wake up this morning.

Maybe you were the only twenty-something to walk through that particular puddle
Or the only person to lay their eyes on that particular leaf, from that particular tree
Maybe you're the most creative person in your town,
or maybe just the best person in your town at tying your shoelaces in under 5 seconds

Maybe the water you're drinking did actually pass through a dinosaur?
When someone says the word 'heaven', a completely idiosyncratic image could pop into your head,
The same is true of the word 'rainbow'.

You could be someone's favorite person in the entire universe.
Or the person they fell in love with on this train this morning.

You could be a part of someone's first memory.
Or a stranger in the background of their favorite photo.
You could smile at a complete stranger and make their entire day.

You could be quietly phenomenal.
