We are the grave diggers
We are the poem writers
We are the music makers
We are the observers
We are the ones who see the little details
We sometimes miss the obvious
for we are observing every single aspect
We are the masterminds
that no one will recognize
until we die
We are the grey matter
our sanctuaries seem strange to most
for we are the stars
and we truly see life.

Author's Note: Inspired by the conversations that I share with one of my closet friends, Melissa. It's not a masterpiece, but it came from my heart.
