sitting on the couch with my daughter's friends

I open my eyes and I stare at nothing. I look and I cannot see. I search and I cannot find. I listen and I cannot hear. I focus and I lose my mind. I wait and wonder. Nothing familiar but the loneliness. No one knows who I am. Not even me. They know what I am not. Not a good mother. Not employed. Not anything special. They don't know how far i have come. They don't realize how far i am going. They are nothing but a pair of eyes watching me rise in the morning sky. The world belongs to me.
