The Human Connection

Alone in the strongest marriage
Alone in the world class team
Alone in the therapy group
Alone on your wedding day

Alone at your father's funeral
Alone at the Massage parlour
Alone at the rock concert
Alone on stage

Alone around friends
Alone around collegues
Alone around pets
Alone on the treadmill

Alone with your children
Alone with your God
Alone with your work
Alone on a plane

At every opportunity
Humans seek to connect
Their antennae reaching out
Those that fix their gaze
Remember the pain only too well
