Closeness



The whirlwind of the air upon our spoken mind,
As mix of emotions can sometimes feel unkind,
A worrisome of a disappearance unsure how to feel,
When seeing a smile return and feel better to deal,
Understanding a closeness of emotion was a lost endeavor,
Attempted to emulate someone that I thought was better,
Formality of behavior to better in turn solidify manners,
Informal when alone to discuss what matters,
Distant at times to lessen the anger,
A closeness to better feel closer together,
A tip of a cap to show respect,
To live and learn without disrespect.
