Uncertainty

We stood face-to-face,

And I could read her, see her, 

But she couldn't. 

She jumped in puddles, and wore torn clothes. 

When asked her what she wanted, she asked for her parents. 

I jumped away from the puddles, and wore the finest clothes. 

When asked what I wanted, I am sure my parents weren't part of my wish. 

But this doesn't mean, that she didn't want the glitz and glamour and comfort that I had. 

But this doesn't mean, that I didn't love my parents. 

Then, what does it mean? 

She walked around bare feet, and slept on cold stone. 

I walked around in my Stilettos, and slept with red duvets. 

But this doesn't mean, that she wasn't comfortable. 

But this doesn't mean, that I am comfortable. 

Then, what does it mean? 

She played with twigs and stones. 

I played with Barbie Dolls, and pink everything. 

But this doesn't mean, that she never enjoyed it. 

But this doesn't mean, that I had fun. 

Then, what does it mean? 

She talked to strangers, and found a friend. 

I talked to strangers, and found a friend. 

But this doesn't mean, that the stranger was bad. 

But this doesn't mean, that the stranger wasn't overly friendly,

Whatever that means. 

Then, what does it mean? 

She lacked education, 

I got the best education from the best school. 

But that doesn't mean, that she wasn't educated, 

But that doesn't mean, that I was. 

Then, what does it mean? 

 You must ask, what does it mean? 

Then, I must say, that it means uncertainty. 

I look happy, 

But am I happy? 

She looks unhappy, 

But is she unhappy? 

Of course, she lacks a lot of things. 

But one thing she doesn't lack, is appreciation. 

But one thing I do lack, is appreciation. 

One thing she doesn't do, is take things for granted,

 One thing I do, is take things for granted. 

One thing is certain, that people are deceiving. 

The best dressed can be the worst, 

And the worst dressed, can be the best. 

Do you still not get what all this means? 

I still must say, that it means uncertainty.
