Hello readers, welcome to OCpoetry. This subreddit is a writing workshop community -- a place where poets of all skill levels can share, enjoy, and talk about each other's poetry. Every person who's shared, including the OP above, has given some feedback (those are the links in the post) and hopes to receive some in return (from you, the readers).

If you really enjoyed this poem and just want to drop a quick comment, to show some appreciation or give kudos, things like "great job!" or "made me cry", or "loved it" or "so relateable", please do. Everyone loves a compliment. Thanks for taking the time to read and enjoy.

If you want to share your own poem, you'll need to give this writer some detailed feedback. Good feedback explains from your point of view what it was like to read the poem, and then tries to explain how the poem made you feel like that. If you're not sure what that means, check out our [feedback guide](https://new.reddit.com/r/ocpoetry/wiki/feedbackcritiques), or look 

Not sure if the intention was this, but this reminded of of the recent pandemic years: bold and friendly greetings caving into short nods and distanced hello’s; the lack of human contact stunting people from fruitful interactions, preventing us from growing.  The paragraph format gives it a spoken word feel, which is chill.  The last line hits for me: solemn reverie.  Good work!

This is insanely well written. The flow is just amazing. It feels like conforming to society and then realizing you’re absolutely miserable. Which is super relatable

Living to be seen.
