Directions

subways plunder into the stations

I’m hanging on to my phone

directions to here, there, everywhere

I assure you I am not lost

far from it

this alone makes it feel a little lonely

and yet filled with company

chats with Chris are long and fulfilling

see you at Main St, we are headed the same way

returning the same way

so no goodbyes are said

a stranger no more

you don’t have an accent

but I do, its an American one i think

Are you sure you didn’t go to International School?

I laughed internally, so deeply

for I cannot answer their questions, for I

myself am puzzled, even back at home they say

the same, however i am glad i amused you

I’m glad.
