We're here,
Singles scattered
Among the crowd of
Twos.
The ones who
Need the extra chair
Pulled up to the table
Set for four.
The ones with no one
To open up the door.
Look behind our
Confident smiles
And see the empty
Spot inside.
Invite us into your
Couple conversations
Like our words have
Meaning too.
They do.
Sit beside us in
Church.
Seek us out.
Smile.
Give our shoulder
A gentle hug.
Realize you could one
Day be one of us.
Care.
Be aware.
