Waiting for trains

Description: F Train, Manhattan-bound, 17 May ...
Watching
But not seeing each other
The careful avoidance of the eyes
Distance achieved by awareness
That is not recognition
I know who you are
And sometimes
You wonder about me
But we don't speak
Knowing that would be
An intimacy too far
An exposure
Almost like peeling off a skin
But I look for you among the commuters
And I miss you when you aren't there
