Elucidating Questions

Those tiny moments I feel ignored

Not at all owed any of anyone’s time

Owed nothing

But what I wouldn’t give for something

I wish there were magic words to say to unlock your heart

As mine own is

To unlock anyone’s

Me never seems to do the trick

What am I?

In this strange expanse without you

Without anyone

Cursory conversations

Same rotations

And if I could send you one thing?

It’s that I’m here

But I don’t know even if

We were blessed enough to be born on the same rock

Maybe here is nowhere to you

Yeah

Hello

Exactly hello

More of that and less of goodbye

Endless goodbyes

Wishing you’d find me out here

Somewhere

He said

Was someone filming that?

And I said

That happens to me all the time

Is someone filming this?

It all just happens so specifically

I wish I could

Pick up the phone

And have someone to say hello to

How was your day?

Tell me about your day so I can live through it

Nobody wants to be alone but here I am

Two people who can’t communicate trapped in a body where they never get to communicate with anyone else either

Alone times 2

Just for laughs

Gags

My life

Oh and yes

Fuck you Hermes always just a little you know how it is

Can’t get through these barriers

I’m so afraid of what the next person I let close to me will do to me

But can’t I just have somebody to love?

Who maybe loves me

Who has time for me?

Time for me

That’s almost as unlikely as hello
