Dec 2018
I occupy an irrelevant corner
Witnessing merry groups consort whilst passing
Days elapse, crowds move on
I remain standing unnoticed
Yearning for inclusion
Honing ponderous ideas
Lingering for an impeccable moment
If I could just --
If I could just get that one moment
I could surprise people
I could become one of these people streaming by
The content beings - the loved souls
The world spins whilst I delay
Countless perfect moments neglected
Infinite opportunities yet impending
I am an introvert that desperately wants to be an extrovert. I am always waiting to say the right thing, and when I have an opportunity, the words just cannot find their way out and the moment passes. On to the next one, hopefully.
