"One Instant" (Originally Written 9/5/10)

I see couples walkin' by,
Kinda makes me wanna cry,
I know,
I know I'm in a cliche world of barbies an kens,
Happily ever afters,
Silver linings,
But I see the sweet smiles,
Arm in arm interlocking like puzzle pieces,
Eyes gazing into eyes on sidewalks,
Perfection staring at me through workday windows.

I see mothers escorting children,
Scolding them,
Pushing them along in strollers,
Loving them,
Kinda makes me wonder,
Wonder if I'll ever be a part,
A part of couples walkin' by,
The one half of a couple,
So that we can say our "I dos",
Watch baby grow,
Grow,
Grow,
BOOM!
Be born.

I see it all,
Kinda makes me think,
Rethink,
Wonderin' where life is gonna take me.
