The Revelation

The well-dressed man walked through a portal With his head held high Wearing a trench coat with an upturned collar A trilby hat pulled down over his eyes He was a tall man who strode through the doorway With a confident air A man you could not patronize He would be aware Why? this fixation for this man Why? the intrigue As he was fast approaching I felt a spontaneous need to call I opened my mouth wide to SHOUT Nothing came out at all His nearness was tangible I could almost hear him breathe As I started to navigate towards him I will make this revelation I went to meet my husband From the Railway Station!
