Searching Then Daydreaming

Searching for one’s tribe

Is not easy.

Especially if you’re faint hearted

And meeting fellow humans makes you queasy.


The motive for searching for a tribe

Is to satisfy my yearn for connection.

However, I postpone my search for company

In fear of ridicule and rejection.


What if I embarrass myself?

What if they don't care

About my attempts to connect?

Do I even dare?


And then there’s the matter

Of social awkwardness.

What should I say? What should I do?

My, my, I feel like a mess!


Exhausted by these worries, 

I give in to my reclusive side

And focus on more important tasks

Like daydreaming about mermaids dancing at high tide.
