A huge hall, a basketball court;
A vast space, used by all players
Multiple activities going on, all around
Badminton, table tennis, basketball, gossip.
She was there, one of the many.
Just a part of the crowd, playing.
Pretending to be enthralled in her game
While her mind was elsewhere engaged.
And there he was, a part of the crowd, yes.
Yet he stood out.
Not pretending, but truly enthralled.
Until the basketball slipped from his grasp.
He turned, facing the deepest brown he had ever known
So mysterious, filled with secrets.
All Time stood still, as did her heart, for this was magical
As their souls connected on a level that was above the mundane realms of the world.
