Perfect Day?

what I hate most

is a perfect day

the sun shining

cool breeze blowing

fun with family

and friends


not the day itself

not the company

but the wall

the invisible wall

that stands between the day

and my enjoyment of it


on my side of the wall

it is a gray and rainy day

the hot, humid air

clogs in my lungs

my family and friends

too far away to touch


and the worst part is

from my side

I can see them having fun

see them loving life

and can only

pretend

I am with them
