It was just a little thing,
the way you read my mind–
probably coincidence
or planetary confluence
no reason or no rhyme.
It was just a little thing
how the words took their own meaning
as if you sensed my deepest thoughts
and knew what I was feeling.
It was just a little thing
no truth or consequences
but for a moment it felt real
some universal prescience
and I, the pawn who stumble on
searching for some relevance
holding the last bastion
just to find indifference
provision without sustenance
