As she stood puffing on her smoke
The icy wind whipped at her face
She peered longingly through the frost framed window
She watched her family as they sat in the love warmed kitchen
She watched as her mom and her aunt chuckled at a joke only sisters could share
She watched as her dad amused a captive audience
Of cousins and friends
She watched as the children wove their way through adult leg mazes
She watched as each and every family member basked in the warmth
She stood outside shivering, peering into loves glow
A single solitary tear leaked from her eye
As it traced an icy path down her cheek,
The thought struck her, she is, was, and always would be,

Looking in
From the Outside
