A Split Second



It was a split second
at the most
when a stranger walked past
and just then
before leaving my world
he looked up
the way you would look up
not quite sure
above your eyelashes
to the left
and I was transported
back to there
back to the time you cared
a tear came
a mini drama played,
projected,
onto an outside screen
