Gideon’s Challenge – The Silence

Lobelia FlowersThe Silence

How is it
in a room
full of people
we can feel
so alone
even
as they speak
and smile
touch
and hug
it only makes
that moment of
desolate
solitude
more acute
than before

One thought on “Gideon’s Challenge – The Silence

  1. Cuz you really don’t like those touches and hugs. You allow it because it’s for -them-, but it’s not something you can find comfort in…at least not with most…

    That’s why you still feel alone.
    But come and curl up in my arms and see if you still feel the same, hm?
