the outside

when I look back,

I see how beauty made her smile.
the shape

of people.
the size, the weight,

the clothes one wore.
a superficial take on the world.

a house just so.

the perfect chair,
the perfect rose.

her hand always on her phone,
saying look,

scrolling through a hundred
photos,

look how beautiful these young
people are.

never once, saying how kind
or good they were.
