"her words described her
like her heart was whispering.
stealing glances, awkward pauses.
long afternoons, short time.
not expecting nor believing."

time slowly flowed and spring turned into warm and sunny summer. during the two months nothing special happened, every day was the same as if i didn't need a change. i finished many books and left them on the counter. i saw the black haired girl sometimes while visiting library but besides a small talk, we didn't talk at all to each other.

but there was at least one thing i had made a progress with. i wrote poems. a person would think there wasn't anything to write about when you had such a boring life but i have to disagree.

everything you need is to concentrate on one thing or person and let your hand describe what your heart is telling. and i found this one person. it was her - the girl with short black hair. she didn't seem like a stranger to me anymore, rather someone who i was getting to know. she helped me with learning how to write poems more than the weather could. soon i found out she was different in a lot of ways from other people i often saw on the streets. and staring at her while reading quickly became my habit. i'd never thought i could've found something that would make me stop in the middle of the chapter. i'd never believed i could've written a poem. and now here i was - writing poetry about a girl i hardly ever talked to.
