I cried my heart out in Walmart

it was right before Christmas. After my home and most cherished memories had been irreversible vanished in ash. 
I cried among merry people, as they were passing, no one stopped, 
none even noticed my silent cry 
while letting loose those unconscious tears 
and warm tenderness. I was there among countless strangers, unknown to them — 
a stranger myself, homeless and clothed at least two sizes up my small body measurements. 
Life is just a story, a social experiment. 
Sometimes an out-of-body experience, 
a mental lapse or a breakdown when you are trying so desperately to make it work but reality seems like a crack that goes down deeper and deeper. 

I looked around all mirrors 
the only friend I could find that unfortunate day 
was a lost stranger with sunken eyes breathing her pain 
free amongst other strangers.
