To be truly smiled for.

hunched over a cup
of simple cava this night
and i feel you enter
on a breathy gust of wind
flesh yet i smell so faint
under the soft guise of this
the perfume you wear
and i grimace
all unseen
for i know already how
your life is
and that we shall share
this path for awhile
turning i catch a glimpse
of rage mixed hate
not for me but
for a male such as i
only a glimpse
so easily hid
but yet you have not
looked away
as i stand
walk to you
still my eyes you meet
that crinkle at the corners
so very lovely by the way
as you wonder
from where you know me from
that i have never seen you
before this moment
does not matter
for like so many you yet
recognize me
as someone you know or knew
tip of tongue type thing
normal
as i take your small hand
guide you to a seat
thinkin to my self
how wonderful it would be
to have you truly smile
for me
