Keely Breen Poet Narrative

I Have No Friends In College

Long story short,
I have no friends in college. 
I watch and react hoping for a spark.
I listen and await the judgement.
I construct scenarios in my head.
I look aimlessly for a fun fact or conversation starter.
I, have no friends in college. 
We learn, imagine, solve but never repeat the process.
So,
I have no friends in college. 
Party hard, sleep later.
Or sleep hard, party later?
After I get friends I’ll go out.
Introductions lead nowhere 
Only given a name and a face,
Ugh I’ll just forget. 
I have no friends in college. 
If at first you don’t succeed,
Try again, later?
I think I’m good
On my own though.
Survival of the least needy,
Starts today; 
Or tomorrow.  
I am okay with it-
You know,
No friends in college. 
Welcome to adulthood!
I guess this is where it starts;
Do I owe you a thank you?
