you smiled at him today.
my heart fluttered and so did yours.
"did you see that?" you said with glee.
"he smiled at me."
I nodded and we hugged
your gaze lingered on his retreating figure
and mine hardened
because
we all saw the same thing.
a grim face and a passive nod
returned with an eager delight of hope.
as we passed through those corridors,
fourteen people walked side by side,
only one person smiled.
-Jackson
