I envy you
your quiet life
of which I am
no part
we speak in
roundabouts
where events
are always
so-so
an average sum
of which I know neither
your lows
nor
your joys

Intriguing and wondrous! It puts me in mind of the “zero-sum” game in mathematics, which is so much easier to understand now that your poem has given me a key. Very nicely done!

I’m glad it was resonant. =)

The title is the opposite of the message of this poem. It’s full of emotion. Very beautiful!
Yes, and even silence can speak volumes. Thank you! ❤
Superb. “we speak in
