Confess (A to Z Challenge Day 3)

We’re surrounded by countless others

My friends, your friends,

Like sisters, brothers

While over us these unspoken words hover

Could they know all I want is to hear ‘yeah, I love her’?

How could you be so close

And yet miles away

If I reached out I could touch you

But then what would you say?

Your body’s here but your heart’s not

We can’t seem to leave this zone

I feel we’re on the verge of something

But you still pretend that no one’s home

What if my hand held yours?

What would your feelings say?

Could my hand keep yours

Or would you pull away

Our group fades, the crowd recedes

The man at the front says it’s time to leave

If only you would keep your seat

What is the fate that I’ll receive?

Its closing time

We must go home

You walk out

And I go alone



Closing time
This room won't be open till your brothers or your sisters come
So gather up your jackets, move it to the exits
I hope you have found a friend
Closing time
Every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end
