Anticipation
Survived disappointment,
Fading to weak expectation,
Lingering briefly as hope,
To finally thrive
As avoidance.
Cursory acknowledgement
Satisfies the minimal
Requirements in the minds
Of some.
Truth be told,
Every time it feels
As if the bottom
Falls out,
And I tumble
Singularly
Through the
Fallacy of
Shared space.
