In the middle of a party
When everybody's laughing
I don't,
I usually don't find anything
that funny or interesting
And mind me
Nobody's expecting me to laugh
But there's something inside me
That pulls my core towards it
That's when I know that familiar feeling
And I shift my attention to those talks
Just to be more engaged
and denounce the feeling
And what better way
than an eye contact
But with each words
coming out of his mouth
I turn deaf to him
And just look at those eyes
Long enough for me to realise
That it's a stare
It is uncomfortable in my mind
And I bring to myself
Just to take my eyes off
But in that moment
Right after my quick response
I realised he needed me the most
However I stare away
His eyes still on me
But he stops talking
Everybody in that room
suddenly disappears
With only this ringing in my ears
feeling a hollowness in my chest
Pulled back by the sound of my lighter
