For some unexplicable reason, I've always had a fear of asking people to "hang out" with me. You know when there's someone you find fun or interesting, and would like to get to know more and in my case maybe even DD about them, but you aren't at the point in a relationship where you're actually considered "friends"?

Yeah, I assume this is when the majority of people will pop a "we should hang out sometime!" or "what are you doing tonight?" out of habit, without really thinking much of…

So simple the expectation

I realize as it is annulled

The dream came true, I tell myself

And focus on believing it.

After years of longing, even craving for the acceptance

The truth it now becomes

Not quite the taste I wanted

But it’s something, a relief.

If the notes are audible, that is.

Otherwise I’ll meander along the same winding road, with the lake now in sight, as I had always known it would come…
