"Lantern Parade 2015"

"Lantern Parade 2015"


No pictures at all,
Feels trip to the core
Despite seeing friends
Still alone and no more

Waiting for text messages
Running looking for loading stations
Yet still most can't reply
If not telling tomorrow or next time

Sitting alone at the cab
Listening Boutros while looking at others
Trying myself to stave off the feels
Creeping in my mind

Then the rector is gone
His feet gone bad from walking
He went to a corner
Till not seen till he messaged later

Sudden rain and cold coffee
And going home via taxi
Only to be reprimanded at home through a threat
That for next week "or else you can't get home to rest"
