Confrontation Between Souls
He stands alone
Waiting for love
Holding up a sign
people walk past
judging, laughing, chatting
glancing over, they scrutinize him
he is just an outcast
who needs their touch,
the human connection
longing love,
always alone,
feeling frustrated,
he starts to walk
sign held at his chest,
close to his heart
in the midst of people
one girl notices him
interest glitters in her eyes
they walk past
he looks back,
she looks back
Eyes meet
Moment of tension,
Indecision
they think silent thoughts
movements reveal,
Decision
He turns with arms open wide
Struggles through the crowd
She does the same
no words exchanged,
a simple embrace
between two strangers
They move on
Each going separate ways
Never to meet again
To resume their lives
Return to the buzziness of their beehives
The moment, a distant memory, when
Two souls momentarily, temporarily, became one
