Not a stranger. Not at heart.
We play at constant recognition,
oh, I remember you.
Yes
.
Every new exchange is filed firmly under You are an excellent person to know. You keep proving it. I guess we are each breaking through levels of temporary strangeness to find an
old friend
. We do it quickly, so it will be all right when you kiss me on my wrist. It is.
I have not learned much about your
hands
except that they are
warm and kind
. You reach out to save people from traffic. You press
my hand against your collarbone
and we don’t talk.
Your face's default is not a frown; expressionless, you look as if you are waiting for
the next reason to smile
. You smell good. You smell like optimism. Your hands, folded, supporting your chin, are priceless, something I want to cut out of a photograph, something I would like to keep.
See you next Wednesday...
