Connection? Poem by Renee Wade

Is this a connection?
I am so engaged by you, and I thought you felt the same
Maybe that was naïve
Maybe I mistook boredom for connection
And then connected connection with affection

We're supposed to stay with people we have connections with, right?
Even if the pit in my stomach said something wasn't quite right?
But where is the line drawn?

I know now I wasn't much to you
Just another to fill your time with even if I was the first to leave
But I thought we'd still talk?
Ignoring each other and acting as if we never existed in a room full of everyone we know

I struggle to connect with other people, so I ask again
Was that a connection?
Was there ever a connection? Or did I just place my yearning on you.
