Social situations

They all stroll in around eight and we’re all tired after a long work week.
One cooks, one drinks, one talks politics, one plays games, one complains, and alone another sits.
I am the odd man out?
A voice with a choice and no thoughts present.
Stay at home and stay alone in shelter from rain and storm.
Or face the facts and just relax, calm as the day I was born.
Crying for a breath of fresh air and blinded by the first glimpse of light in that cold room.
