They are talking again
About age old gossip and past events
Retelling tales while munching on food
Enjoying each other's company
They all seem so happy
Why?
I don't know.
They just are.
I can hear them
But I don't really listen
I just want to concentrate
On eating
And drinking
Because
If I share
If I laugh
I might be forced to remember my role in all of this
and frankly
That is not something I want to do
