quietness and patience,
and yet a lingering desire;
a tendency to disappear,
and yet hope for a glimpse.
even if brief and fleeting
a chance of meeting
another intersection in intersecting lines
a view from and not of the skyline
a visual unmoving but electric
admit that there’s perfection in asymmetry
admire that there’s beauty in what is messy
quietness and patience
and a shameless desire
a tendency to disappear
and to catch a glimpse.
a soul unwired, its willingness to desire
and a bravery to admit it
even though it can’t win everything!
