‘Lovely weather we are having’, He said.
I did not know that he was trying to
speak to me,
my anxiety told me that it was mere pity,
I think back and wonder how many such
interactions have passed.
How many friendships and genuine
connections lost, like treasure at sea,
because I was too far gone living in my
head?
So I told myself the next time someone
tried to reach out even with the most
mundane of topics,
I would entertain it and build a bridge
so my thoughts can pass through and
hopefully find a friend.
