Pear tree. She looks at his garden as he
peers through the curtains. Next door, neighbor.
Growing up, strangers. Wanting more than a white
picket fence relationship. Waiting, for each other.
Wishing, for the other to give up comfort.
Eyes + Words 
Too often, people are unwilling to step outside their comfort zone, to be brave and surrender to the unknown, emotion that burns within …

Sometimes we are too arfaid to speak and wait for the other one to do so, when in reality both think the same and few things are left unsaid. Great poem💛

“Wanting more than a white picket fence relationship”
This is a fantastic line that speaks volumes about the world we currently live in. I would say that it almost acts as a metaphor for the smartphone generation. Why is it so hard to connect these days?
