Starting with a misstep after
skipping over my own tongue.
Taken in stride by your
quick wit held aloft by
a charmed laugh.
Smitten by an
unexpected connection;
altered plans,
perhaps serendipitous,
led our paths to cross.
But, as ever, I am unsure;
past friendliness so often
mistaken for interest.
I play back our time
together; reminiscing already
in the wish of repeating.
I hope we meet again,
if only for another chance to
make a fool of myself
for you.
by Erik Shinker
I particularly like the wry honesty of the ending.
