We finally sat together at the same table,
casually keeping up an animated lively banter,
hardly noticing the hiatus in our friendships
Everyone was cussing freely, telling jokes
while taking their puffs
I was smiling broadly
while struggling to fight against
the shroud of loneliness
that enveloped me quite suddenly

Am I a despicable leech,
holding on to
quench my emotional void

or am I a collector of friends,
interested in their characters and idiosyncrasies?

I trust you all didn't notice
I was still smiling broadly

Very interesting question you are asking yourself. I guess you are the only one who can answer it too. Well written thoughts. **hugs**

Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams.

Startime, peaches and Bill Charles,

thank you for reading and for the "interesting"s.. as i mentioned in my first draft, i later came to the conclusion that i have a genuine interest in people, no thanks to the unquenchable thrist of curiosity that Virgos are renowned to have..ha!
