Amelia





His shoes snap
His shoes slap
His shoes smack 
Against pavement. 

His tie loosened 
His watch fastened 
His hands soft as silk
Honey brown locks cascade his head 

He walks in London 
Maybe Paris 
Maybe home. 
He walks near my home and doesn't know it. 

He dreams as similarly as I do
Longs as endlessly as I do 
But his confidence never furrows 
His heart never weakens 
And his eyes are seldom sad. 

His wardrobe is so simplistic 
His tastes are eccentric 
And he favors something sweet from time to time 

He aspires to be something 
Is loving and compassionate 
He is charming and not forgetful
Angelic beneath the wings 

Her shoes smack 
Her shoes clack 
Her shoes slap
Against pavement. 

Her scarf snug 
Her trench open 
Her skin as bright as day
Her head of velvet curls 

She walks in Jersey
Maybe Manhattan 
Maybe home. 
She walks right past him and doesn't know it. 

She dreams as similarly as he does
And longs as endlessly as him. 
As endlessly for him. 
As endlessly for each other. 

Lovers.
