18 white carriages
glide into the station
onto the platform
the hustle and bustle of
people walking in and out
of the automated doors.
some in their own little words,
supplied by the melody
through the little white wires connecting
their ears to their pockets.
some with their phones to their ears,
chatting away.
some just staring into the distance,
waiting for the next exciting thing
in their life to happen.
people sitting on the little green seats
lined up against the walls of the train.
some completely blocked by newspapers,
some sound asleep.
the sound of the rain
hitting the windows
at a 50 degree angle
(pitter-patter)
the sight of you
as i walked in,
with your wide smile
and your eyes transfixed on me.
all handsome with your
dark hair swept to the side.
and as we sat down,
i observed you from the reflection
on the opposite window
observing me.
