If

If only I could meet someone like me
I could speak my mind
and be understood
I would listen to the person
and we could talk, hours on end
If only my little world had more people
or at least more space
I wouldn't mind working and renovating
to make more room.
If only it were as easy as saying
Hello!
To a friend
I'd be so content
If I were ever to meet someone like me
I'd be
surprised
happy
and excited.
I'd introduce myself, and try and start a conversation
and that I'm like them.
If in fact I were right, I'd feel immense happiness
because I just added another person to my world.
But, it happens that I'm wrong
that I wasn't right
I'd get disappointed
but move on all the same.
Because outside of my little world,
there are more people to meet.
