'Come over here' he said

'Let's you and me
talk private.

I've noticed you
noticing me
and I wonder if
that is illusion
and am I making it up
or if it is true
and you did
notice me.

If not fine
I'm gone.

If so
let's talk.
What is the truth?

She:
'Yes I noticed you-
I saw you;
I mean
but that is all-
I noticed'

He: 'Well what did you think of me
when you noticed me?
Did you like me? '

She: ,
'Like you?
I don't know you'
.
'Well what did you think.
Well I thought you, , , ,
Actually I didn't
I wasn't thinking
I was just noticing?
'
Ok, nothing
no spark?
'No, no spark.'

In my twenties i would look into every
face and ask
are you my Future One?

And each face I peered into
would be examined and evaluated
and ultimately graded
and done within 3 seconds.

But if one
noticed me
noticing
I would end up
in conversations
like the above one.
