Subtle – VJs Weekly Challenge 54

Days passed
as sly glances became overt
with no response,
though no overture was proffered
she dallied by the lift
and waited by the copier,
he was oblivious
until that one day
she lingered in the cafe,
sat next to him, and
hit him with an invitation
written on her face.

I hung out with a couple who were so slow they needed jumper leads. Though to be fair Iโve met a couple of women like that too. ๐
