My reality comprises
communal living with
twelve men

Sometimes, we
ramble the night away,
being politely interested
in one another's heroic tales
because there isn't
much else to do and
we aren't adept at
enjoying solitude

That night,
a bunch of us
struck conversation gold
while following the routine,
steering the mood swiftly
from detached acknowledgement
to passionate engagement

We endured through fatigue,
eagerly contributing
bits and pieces to
the topic under discussion
until we forged a
collective conclusive truth

I like that facades are lifted and heartstrings are tugged
I dig this combustible spontaneity of getting to know someone

Love this. Really do!

Remember, if you're not part of the future, you're history!

Twelve together...gives multiple opportunities for expressing a wide range of attitudes, perspectives on all topics of life.
I like the way you think, kaile. Instead of whining about lack of private space, you seek and find golden moments within a group.

You ARE a PEOPLE person.

Talked the night away
Drank each other
As we played
Learning as we strayed
To another day

Brought back some memories of those late night conversations that just flow
