I looked at you differently

In the light
Of the fluorescent lamp
You're hunched over,
Thinking like those funny Greek statues in museums,
A quiet beauty.

The slope of your nose,
Wonder of your eyes,
Curve of your lips.

I stare,
Caught in a Yeats poem.
Its an odyssey,
Falling for someone.
Its a breakthrough,
learning to love again.

Merci Mille Fois, Mon amour.
