As I come down the stairs
And reach the middle landing
I round the corner
And there at the bottom
She has just come through the doors
And starts up the stairs
I look right at her
I cant help but look
And for a brief terrifying moment
Im afraid she wont see me
Afraid that she will
Then her eyes shift
I see recognition
Maybe even joy?
Maybe Im imagining it
She smiles at me
I think she says hello
Im not sure
I smile back
And raise my hand
In a faint gesture of hello
I think I say hey
Im not sure
Then its over
Her attention shifts back
Up the stairway
Where more important things await
We pass each other
I could reach out
And touch her
Though I would never consider
Such an intrusion
Then shes behind me
I want to look back
But I dont
I wish she would look back
But I know she doesnt
Im just a sign
On the side of the road
Just barely interesting enough
For her to glance at
And maybe even read
As she passes by
But not enough
To divert her
From her destination
