Different Directions

Dan caught her eye across from the opposite side of the tracks, she had on pink, I thought to my self how flattering is that coat she is wearing. She turned away as if some what kinda shy. I wonder what she is saying about me inside her thoughts.

She was so delegate like a soft peddle on a rose. Our bodies speaking volumes and neither one of us has said a word. I look up at the board to see how much time we had on the platform before our trains came.

We are like passing ships in the night, how poetic. I could not bring my self to say hello. I guess this is too mysterious and I don’t really want it to end. What if she is the one and I don’t ever see her again.

My heart raced as I saw the lights of the passing train approaching. It is your chance to say hello don’t waste it she will be gone in seconds, but I like to remember this at this time here in this place. Her train arrived.

She smiled and waived good-bye as she got on the train; I was drawn into her space for just that brief moment.

    That’s beautiful…my favorite line is, “We are like passing ships in the night, how poetic.” You did spell brief wrong in the last line—“brief”, it should be. But other than that, amazing!
