What?

A scary thought of being thought,

Of being watched with no eyes.

Of being read, like a book bought

Of having answered silent cries.

A profound feeling of being missed

Of knowing the other's mind

Of writing in tones hissed

Of having returned in kind.

A week's work for a job done

Of greetings by many an eager face

Of being encouraged by just one

Of finding one's true place.

A cacophony of spoken word

Of knowing things to be taught.

Of being caught completely off guard
Of feeling euphoric for 'what?'
