Yellow Neon Light

It was lust at first sight.

Two strangers set against a starless night. 

The right place at the right time.

I was with him, but I noticed you immediately.

I noticed you noticing me.

And so after I walked him home, I went back to find you. 

Same seat. 

Same proximity & heavy air between us.

An hour with a palpable lack of converstaion, then a “watch my drink?”

Upon my return, a surprising depth to our words. 

A hunger in our eyes.

I wanted to corrupt you.

So we left by the neon yellow light.

Strangers no more.
