A chance meeting

Again

The abrupt pass of each other in the crowd

I know that face so well

I think I could draw it from memory

You look at me with a pause

Probably just shock

As if you’ve been punched in the gut

Or maybe that’s just how it feels for me

With a tiny spark in your eyes

As if to say

There you are

The plesantries are made

The how are you’s

The casual I’m good’s

Then silence lingers between us

Even after all this time

The insecurities are there

Because we walked away

From each other, from ourselves

We know the truth inside

Yet nothing seems to come out from either of our lips

I can’t seem to stop staring at you

As if your a mirage

This can’t be real

Even if it is

What does this even mean

You look at my face

A smirk on yours,as your hand goes up in a wave

As you slowly saunter in the other directions

All that comes out of your mouth

Be careful out there
