Waiting to catch the bus I looked around.
Our eyes locked momentarily.
I knew he felt it too. But as I boarded
I tried to ignore this deep unexplained feeling.
So, I sat and just stared ahead.
Stop it I said to myself, but my eyes wandered to his
My heart raced, then he was next to me.
Silently reaching over he kissed me.
A stirring passion engulfed our desire.
The bus stopped, and as I stepped off
I saw her smiling face as she greeted him.
Without looking back, I walked away.
With a tingle of a stranger’s silent kiss on my lips.
I thought how random but then smiled.
