Her

The trip seemed rather uneventful 

They went up the elevator, spoke to a few people and back down again 

The door opened and as he went up the stairs he saw a girl to his left 

Something about her called him by name 

But he didn’t want to be the first one to say something, so he just smiled

A happy smile that he imagined said ‘hello, my name is… and I want to look into your eyes and hold your hand’

He wondered if she got all that from a the twinkle that for sure was in his eye 

And then as he walked towards the middle, she spoke to him 

It wasn’t like a song with melodic strings accompanying her voice 

It was simple and beautiful 

Because he could feel her energy radiating and warming him up as walked closer

She congratulated him on his work and he took her hands into his to say thank you 

When what he really wants to do was bring her close to him and see if he could somehow smell her hair, the hair that was tied up and away from her face 

As their hands touched he felt a shock, it was weird but good and he wondered if she did too 

Her image stayed with him as he made his way to the door 

And his brain kept replaying what just happened 

He wondered if perhaps he should have said something else 

Like may be asked her name and where she lived but that would all be too sudden 

So he thought that perhaps it should have been something more simple 

As he was lost in his thoughts, they were interrupted 

By a short girl with long blonde hair that was polite and eager at the same time 

At first he wasn’t sure of what he was hearing and when it finally registered he felt himself smiling 

On the inside as much as on the outside 

He was going to see her again 

The girl with the smile, the girl whose hands he just held hoping to know her name 

And so he went and fell in love with her eyes, with her smile and with her vibe 

There was something about her that he couldn’t exactly describe, but he felt it 

Before holding her close for the picture, he looked her up and down 

Taking her in, to make sure that he would be able to play it back later 

He was smooth and snaked his arms around her body and she fell into him 

It wasn’t weird, it just felt right 

He closed his eyes and he kissed her, staying there for a few seconds just right 

He could feel her smile, he could feel her warmth intermingling with his 

Almost becoming a part of each other 

But he didn’t think of it much then 

Yet it would be something that he would feel continuously 

Later learning of what it actually meant 

For him, for her, for them and everyone else…
