Yours Sincerely

I came back from an outing the other night
And it was a kinda outing whereby I had no feelings
Which wasn't all heeheehaha that kinda outing
In fact I believed I spoke for less than 10 sentences

And being the practical me
First thought that came to mind was how I wasted 2-3 hours
Just being there as a presence
Not speaking or doing anything
Plus the transport fee
Could have cursed and swore

Then again
Coming up with a lame excuse to leave
I got up and left
Not looking back

On the journey back on the train
I was thinking
How in the world did I ended up like this?
Why didnt I go and engage in any conversations?
Why couldn't I just put on a smile and join in enthusiastically?
Why did some messages only was received by particular parties?

Then I thought about it long and hard
But I couldn't find any answers
I knew the answers were somewhere in my head
And in my heart
But deep down I force myself not to admit what's wrong

Yes, it's the group dynamics
It was a volcano waiting to explode
Everyone had little issues with one another
But nobody want to give in
Nobody want to listen
And nobody would change

So here I am
I dare say I can change
But what about the rest of you guys?
Are you all willing to change?
So that the group dynamics would be better?
So that there's less individualistic and elitist behaviour?
Or has the whole society screw us up so bad that it's too late now?
Or maybe
Just maybe
You think that everything is just fine?
And maybe I am THE ONE thinking too much?
Maybe I'm the one who cannot get along with the rest of you?

I got off the train
And the next thought that came to mind
Was to find someone who could understand my situation
Someone who was willing to listen
And offer me some word of advice
Yup
Just some one-on-one heart to heart talk
And no, it doesnt have to be a girl
And brother, if you're reading this in the States
I'm referring to you
I thought of asking you out for a talk
But no, you half a million miles away and I knew that

And yes, my mind circle through the various people I could speak to
But it's so hard to approach to tell them I want to talk to them about this
This particular mindset that I have
This feeling
This situation
They would just feel it's some random stuff

To me, I think it's kinda bothering me
And yup, I need to talk it out
Seriously

Text me
Really
Whoever you think I am referring to
Just text me
If you're the right one
I would let you know

Yours Sincerely
Yong Jun
