I’ve often wondered why you stood out so much to me from everybody else. After all, they were just as skilled, knowledgeable, passionate and talented as you are. It’s only occured to me now that the reason I’ve always liked you has little to do with what you do, and so much more about whoContinue reading “{introverts}”

{the silent manner}
She had been sitting cross-legged on the hard gymnasium floor amongst hundreds of others like her (students). The proximity of so many bodies in one single room made it feel like it was a much warmer day than it really was. So long had she been sitting there that her legs and bottom had goneContinue reading “{the silent manner}”
a prayer.
The sight of him takes her by genuine surprise, for she had not expected to see him. She watches him making his way to his desk; his walk is calm and peaceful. His hair is not as well-kept as usual, suggesting he had just been outside where the wind was blowing with unusual intensity forContinue reading “a prayer.”
(im)patience.
in my patience you will find impatience. (because i am waiting – although i cannot wait – to see you again).
meeting a kindred spirit.
Who can explain why we are attracted to one person more than another? Why it sometimes happens that in a few instants, in one brief conversation, there feels to be already a friendship established, though few words have been spoken, and so few memories shared? How can it be that we can take an immediateContinue reading “meeting a kindred spirit.”

It scared her how sometimes she seemed to go right into his mind and know some of its contents.

For instance, she sensed that she knew how he felt about certain people: who he liked, disliked,Continue reading “telepathy.”
that’s all i came here for.
Hesitatingly (for she had never done this before) she made her way towards his desk. She had noticed him there on her arrival in the building, and she longed to see him, to be physically a little closer to him, and perhaps even share a few words. She felt herself getting shy as she cameContinue reading “that’s all i came here for.”
imaginary conversation.
They stood fairly close to one another: if they but slightly extended their arms, their hands would most surely touch. However they did no such thing, and only stood calmly with this short comfortable distance between them. “Thank you for playing on Sunday,” he went first, “I see you got some nice feedback!” “Yeah, everyoneContinue reading “imaginary conversation.”
honest conversation.
She wanted, and was considering how, to express herself. She had bluntly blurted out that there was something she wished to speak to him about, and now that he sat quietly, expectantly, she knew not what to say first. All the words she had rehearsed in her mind for weeks no longer sounded appropriate orContinue reading “honest conversation.”
Those moments.
Every once in a whileI shall think of youNot of our partingBut of those momentsMarked by a smileThat connected our heartsAcross space and time.
