Feb 2019
The fluorescent streetlamp shone
As you spoke
The pavement and I
Keen with interest
While the street shook
With the roars of busy travellers
And the smoke kept rising..
The neons blinked to life
When you smiled
The tree-leaves and I
Rustled with excitement
As the gentle wind
Tickled in on a late summer's eve
And the smoke kept rising..
The taillights stopped
As you accelerated
The world and I
Saw you move farther
And farther away
Vanishing into the darkness
And the smoke cleared away..

This is just an incident that happened today.
It was not until her cab grew smaller and smaller in the distance that I realised that this had just enough the mix of emotions to allow me to create.
