We chatted,
Simply,
Pleasantly,
It was nothing special,
Just a conversation.
It was nice,
And then you came along.
You greet my friend
But not me.
You turn to face them completely
As you barely glance in my direction.
You start to speak to them,
I chip in,
A slight frown furrows your brow,
Your eyes flicker in my direction.
You address yourself again
To the one who is no longer my conversation partner.
I am not invited
To this new
Special
Conversation. Cool people only.
I turn away
And begin my own conversation
With myself.
I like it better this way,
Anyway.
