After they left, he was alone on the steps.

He had a book of Neruda’s love poems.

He may be deluded,

he thought she might’ve smiled back at him.

He got drunk on eye contact, quite idiotically;

he turned to go through the door,

he smacked his face like a idiot.

It was locked, he had forgotten.

So he sat, he wrote,

he poured his heart into his notebook,

it gave nothing back.
