Alone / Together: A Collection
The Space Between
1) An Awkward Lonliness
We are together,
alone on the last bus ride.
Staring at our phones.
2) Uncomfortable Grief
In my heart we are
together, but alone now.
Cry for all to see.
3) Missed Communication
How much does one miss,
being alone, together,
in the same spaces.
4) Virtual Therapy
Now, I am alone.
Together with blazing cheeks,
I open my phone.
5) Mean Friends
Hide behind your screen,
Sending vitriol alone.
Together with friends.
6) All the Wrong Places
Happiness dies here.
Alone in your Facebook feed.
Together, we live.
7) Sharing a Life, Alone
A clock on the wall,
keeps us in sync, together,
alone on Tik Tok.
8) A Not-So Funny Thing Happened
Falling on my ass.
Wishing I were alone but,
laughing together.
9) Knock First
A roommate should know,
alone is together when,
"I'm getting dressed here!"
10) The Literal Blind Date
Embarrassing scene?
Leave together on that date.
The blind leave alone!
