Distance
Sitting and watching,
Listening to the jumble of voices.
Mine is absent for
Sometimes its just better to watch.
Observe.
And when the time is right
Approach from the distance you put between
Yourself and the others all around.
And share.
Your thoughts.
Your hopes.
Dreams.
Soemtimes you make a connection.
Sometimes another understands.
but for the most part...
No.They don't.
And they mock,
Laugh,
Insult!
So you step back form the others around,
But farther than you were
Until you are too far away to hear...
Too far away to care.
