Understanding is important
and it seems the misunderstood
tend to understand the most.
It's heartbreaking
it's a lack of empathy.
The lack of that ability,
to feel, today, is scarce,
and that's a scary
thing to realize.
The knowledge that most are
so invested in themselves
they can't see
what's in front of them,
and suddenly it's safer to be a
stranger in a strange town,
rather than a friend in a familiar place.
