She stood there looking bored
The first thing I noticed about her
Was the butterfly tattoo on her wrist
Right below her scars
She looked so consumed by pain
And yet so radiant with life
I wanted to reach out
But didn’t know how

A good read! Beautiful use of contradictory images — ‘butterfly’ and ‘scars’, ‘so consumed by pain
And yet so radiant with life’, add to the charm and appeal of the poem.

I read, a well-written expression of the feeling of wanting to reach out but don’t how to approach the person.

I’ve often felt the same, wondering what I could say or do. Mostly all I can think to give is a smile whenever the opportunity arises.
