Observation in a Bar

 

 

 

Two souls - strangers

Unknown one to the other;

Reaching out, groping

With veiled glances and

Seemingly meaningless gestures.

Silently, subtly

Seeking a sign that whispers,

"We should touch,

However briefly.

We should speak,

If only for a moment,

For if we turn away,

We’ll never know…

Friends, lovers,

Or maybe more?

A waste of time

Or a miracle?

Two souls no longer

Strangers unknown

One to the other".
