Two adults

Living across the street

From one another

Peering out windows at night

From glowing drawn blinds

Spying on each other and

Both knowing it

With smiles and wrinkled eyes

I know it

Two older bald men

Another love story that just happened

Two more people in love just like the rest

Forgetting everything they’ve been given

And everyone they’ve shared before

Letting this be the first and only

Shy as two kids could ever be

Being just two adults

Living across the street

From one another.
