UNFORGETTABLE. (OLD POEM)
Unforgettable.
The tall girl he saw
Getting on the bus
And who then sat down
Opposite him with
Her short skirt and big
Black sunglasses that
Covered her eyes. That
Was last May. He can
Still picture her now
Today: the short skirt,
The blonde hair, the way
The big sunglasses
Reflected their small
Images of him
Sitting opposite.
She never spoke; just
Stared straight ahead her
Focus on something
Beyond him as far
As he could decide.
Maybe she was just
Avoiding his gaze,
Looking over his
Head or shoulder, or
Perhaps something more
Importance caught her
Gaze or interest.
He’d never know, just
Speculation on
An incident of
The past. But he still
Couldn’t get her out
Of his mind. Sometimes
He thought he saw her
On other buses
On different days,
But it wasn’t, it
Was just some who
Wore sunglasses the
Same or a short skirt
Similar in its
Colour or design.
He regrets now not
Speaking or asking
Her name or potted
Biography in
The short time allowed.
He’s not seen her since
Outside of his mind
Or occasional
Dream, just the false hope
Of seeing her once
More someplace with big
Sunglasses, short skirt,
Blonde hair and her bright
Angel looking face.
A MAN SEES A WOMAN ON A BUS AND CANNOT FORGET HER.
