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.
