Snapshots

Smeared with rage, he glares at me

Through his teeth, he sneers

I hesitate when I fall

And I feel absolutely nothing

             ~~~~~

With a hint of reluctance, he takes me

Through the chaos, we connect

I hesitate only long enough

To bask in the intimacy 

             ~~~~~

From lips of honey, he grins at me 

Though strangers, he dabbles

I hesitate to think

What he will think of me 

             ~~~~~

Small in stature, he waves at me

Through the glass, he smiles

I hesitate to drive away

Just to etch him into memory

             ~~~~~

Wrapped in regret, she searches me

At my silence, she stares

I hesitate only to realize

That I feel absolutely nothing
