cute girl at the coffee shop

A Poem by dukovan

I saw it as a sideways arc
perpendicular to what I found relevant
is half the world

I don't want to jump over the counter
counter to what I really want 
you've made decisions for me
and that's not fair to say

but fairness is planed in the absence of words
which is sort of what this is,
a lack of actually verbalizing it to you
no, meaning contours along that lovely jaw
where words incubate into perfectly timed faces you make

Where I know, and don't have to wonder
When I know it's so hard to mean what we say
we have time to get better at that
half the world 
now means everything to me
