I saw you for the first time while traveling
somewhere between box scores and day dreams
High above and looking down on the unaware,
like uninvited gods to snippets of time captured
and released as quickly as breathing in, breathing out
A mish-mash-montage of humanity disconnected
from an endless current of high-dwelling passerby's
Till our eyes met and for an instant we discovered
more than benign circumstance
I saw in you weariness and a last clinging hope
Within me, I felt you unravel something unrequited
From the gravity of your weary eyes I can bear it no more
and so, I look away
