Potato salad and salmon
chicken legs bones
There is laughter and stories
But I sit alone.
The barrier of not seeing
Each other for years
Looms along while
Awkwardness nears.
Don't get me wrong
I participate in things
Like how are you chit chat
The social convention brings.
But yet I feel out of place
Among my own kin
Like I will in a year
When the reunion comes again.
