Its that feeling

Its that feeling when,
     You ask about a figurine on the shelf,
             And everyone in the room goes quiet.

Its that feeling when,
     You comment on a persons good luck,
            And they go silent, then turn away.

Its that feeling when,
     You comment on someones great speech,
            Then they walk away, growing pink in the face.

Its that feeling when,
     You say the wrong thing at the table,
            And anything else said afterwards feels awkward.

Its that feeling when,
     You call a dear old friend,
            And they no longer remember your name.

Its that feeling when,
     You write down all the jokes you have with friends,
             A year later no one remembers what they were.

Its that feeling when,
     You say goodbye leaving anywhere,
             And no one turns to say goodbye to you.

Its that feeling when,
     You write all those thank you notes,
             And no one ever writes in return.

Its that feeling when,
     You walk into a room and say hello,
            But no one greets you in reply.

Its that feeling when,
     You prepare a party for everyone to come,
            At the last minute everyone cancels to go to another one.

Its that feeling when,
     You save up all your money for that special something,
            And on the day you go to get it, its no longer there.

Its that feeling when,
     You help everyone out in thier time of need,
             But when you need thier help in you time of need, no one is there.

Its that feeling when,
     You have every one of your friends in a picture
             And the photographer ruins it with his finger in the lens.

Its that feeling when,
     You ask about a family member you saw the other day,
             And you are informed that they had recently passed away.

Its that feeling when,
     You think you have all the time in the world,
            Then you learn its already too late.

Its that feeling when,
     You have everything going for you,
            Then suddenly you have nothing.

Its that feeling when,
     You try to not feel anything,
             For the one person you're falling for.

Its that feeling when,
     You feel everything for one person,
            And they care nothing for you.

Its that feeling when,
     The world as you know it is falling apart,
           And some one steps in to show you that it really isn't.

Its that feeling when,
     You have a moment of panic when you lose something,
            To find out it was nothing at all and could be lost.

Its that feeling when,
     You do your laundry,
             And you lose a sock to your favorite pair.

Its that feeling when,
     You feel that the summer will never end,
            And tomorrow is truly the end.

Its that feeling when,
     You are late to work,
            And you walk in a few minutes early.

Its that feeling when,
     You're at the end of the line for coffee,
           And your coffee is really good when you get it.

Its that feeling when,
     Your favorite clothes no longer fit you,
             But you know they will look fabulous on someone else.

Its that feeling when,
     You do your laundry late at night,
             And you can fall asleep in warm sheets.

Its that feeling when,
     You can't fall asleep on those warm summer nights,
            Then you flip your pillow over and everything is alright.

Its that feeling when,
     You need an extra security blanket although you're past that age,
            And some gives you that extra boost of confidence without prompting.

Its that feeling when,
     You're about to cry,
                And an unexpected person hugs you without a need for explanation.

Its that feeling when,
     You feel you have nothing left to write home about,
            And you realize there is always a funny story to tell.

Its that feeling when,
     You feel that you should give the poor your change,
             Then you see them the next day and you realize it was all an act.

Its that feeling when,
     You clean you room and feel satisfied,
            Then a few minutes later it is a mess again.

Its that feeling when,
     You feel the need to tell one person your life story,
             And you realize they have better things to share.

Its that feeling when,
     You need a girls night,
             And your girls already have brought over the nail polish.

Its that feeling when,
     You need a night out with the guys,
            And they drive up that moment to take you out.

Its that feeling when,
     You miss everyone you've ever known,
             And you have three messages waiting from friends after work.

Its that feeling when,
     You're on a date and wanting to pay,
                But you're date won't hear of it at all.

Its that feeling when,
      You're on a date and you know they want to pay,
                 But you want to treat them, and won't hear of it at all.

Its that feeling when,
     You jump off of the side,
             And you know soon you'll come up for air.

Its that feeling when,
     You run out of change while paying,
            And the person behind you lends you a dollar.

Its that feeling when,
     You know the person in front of you will be short on change,
            And you lend them the change, just for a boost in happiness.

Its that feeling when,
     You don't know the right words to say,
            But you offer a tissue, and it makes the world better.
