Impressive

Looking at the screen 
into the eyes of
the outline of me,
I wonder if she knows 
what I can't see.

I wonder if she understands 
what people mean 
when they say
"In the future, I see big things for you".

It'd be nice if it were true.
Maybe she knows
what I'm meant to do.

I never lacked confidence
but I once lacked love
and I'm not sure 
I'll ever comprehend
what that does to your brain.

Perhaps I'm unfamiliar with
what it's like to feel sane
or what it means to 
thrive in the lane
of my own choosing.

A life filled with experiences 
some could never dream 
yet the only thing I find impressive 
is me.

Well, 
I hope that's what 
the screen believes.
