Unable to vanish

Unable to vanish

A Poem by Jon Roggie

I won't deny it.
I often want to fade into the background.

The trouble is it won't work.

I seem to be a people person.

I am the one who you can talk to.

Yes,
  this is a whine,
    but why not?


I seem to be able to talk to people,
  and they want to respond.

How am I supposed to deny the conversation?

Go with what comes naturally and do not second guess. Anything else to question what does not need questioning. Me not much of a talker ... believe it or not.

I just run with it, and there is the problem.
The quiet ones,
attract the boisterous ones,
when all they seek is to observe.
Kindness prohibits you
from covering your mirror,
when all they want
is to see their own reflection.

unable to turn away,
given a chance
