Watching and listening
To the things around me.
I don't open my mouth
Afraid I might disrupt their flow.
I see how they live
Listen to the words they use
And learn from their mistakes.
I don't want to become them
No, not with the way they talk
Even the way they move and look.
I know what might upset them
I know what will make them laugh
But I sit from a distance
And watch their reactions to different situations
That pass their way
And smile to myself
Because I'm my own person
And not like them.
