Recollect | poetry |
The television blared at a volume That I could hardly handle, But you were sound asleep As if such sounds could hold no candle To whatever sublime sounds Your subconscious wished to hear; So I watched the rest, and watched you rest, As I sipped another beer.
There goes another little memory That neither of us can share. If I add mine up, And add yours up, Will it be enough to care?
My smartphone delivered multimedia Directly into my eyes and ears Until the audiovisual stimuli Had me breaking out in tears; So I wished to share this moment But could only share with you a link And received a couple of emoticons To reveal what you felt and think.
There goes another little memory That neither of us can share. If I add mine up, And add yours up, Will it be enough to care?
You spoke to me at length on a subject That you enjoy with such a passion, But I zoned out a few sentences in And responded with the most minimal interaction Until I found a moment to break free And sought out someone who'd share the stage; We talked at length about cybersecurity But I didn't realize you were disengaged.
There goes another little memory That neither of us can share. If I add mine up, And add yours up, Will it be enough to care?
