HIM

For the “gentlemen”.

There’s always a good story-time for him,

He looks outside the door patiently,

at the plain sky, moving vehicles, blinding lights.

He, the one with face of lover ,

shifting and expressing emotions.

He wonders all day,

doubts the meaning of being empty,

for what he hopes is forever happiness.

But it is only he who can sit by the window,

Dream and allow him to reflect his thoughts.

A chance to chronicle the moments.

A chance to be at peace.

A chance to grow together.

The constant. A baby!
