This poem is to that/those/her mysterious figure that I see/saw; alluring as always in androgyny.
But really, it's intended as an echo to a poem I wrote a small few years ago.
To the girl in the window:
I wonder if you’ve seen me watching,
trying to steal a glimpse
of your silhouette
as you step
from the shower
into a towel of mist
that’s trapped behind
a pane of glass-
and lingering deeper
through the pane
and the fog,
there’s me.
I’d love for you
to catch my eye,
share a smile
with my sinister glance
and allow me
to participate
in this neighbour’s
stranger’s love
where the only evidence to remain
is my shadow
on your wall.
