It was foolish,

Aware I was.


To go back to the bar I met him.

To ask the friend that worked there,

If he was a regular, or a passerby.

But life was not much fair.


Knew his name I didn't,

Knew he was I didn't.

All that I recalled was,

The sparkling brown irises,

And the widest pretty smile.


"Is it the rooftop guy?"

A colleague of his asked.

Nodded I, for there wasn't

Another under the sky that

With me the night prior.


He came often times before;

Saturdays it were always.


It was foolish,

But I was curious.


For not many had ever talked

Of what stays beyond the skin

The first time they meet.


For not many arouse

With words that mean more

Than just plain sentences.


It was foolish,

Yet it wasn't much.
