A hat from the 'twenties
a slender form
a dark blur approaches
mumbled instructions
to himself
A pale face
and round glasses
a smooth, lazy voice
declarations of the mundane
walking down the hall...
A strong dose of TMI
with a hint of philosophy,
genius?
A cordial nod
My heart attempts to
strangle me
I want to leave...
That is how I know he is coming
That moment of joy and fear when you see the silhouette of someone you like (as in "amore") at the other end of a hallway.
