The Long Way by Anastasia Spyromitrou
I would never admit it but I walk the long way for you. I stay in places a little too long I let the hallway traffic slow me down and as I watch the other people pass me by I hope that maybe this time I’ll pass you and maybe our eyes will meet and lock and people’s voices will slowly fade away and everyone will disappear and maybe I’ll see a gleaming in your eyes as our feet force us to move and everything will go back to normal. And even though it’s just a maybe I’ll always walk the long way.
