I'm waiting outside for her and my boss-
who's a young,
successful,
single guy,
passes by
and says,

"That's why I'm not in a relationship,"
and I think

'You shirk love
because
you don't want
to wait?'

I smile
and continue to wait.

My pause
causes
him to respond
nervously.

He tells me,
he was only
joking.

I smile
and continue to wait.

You see,
love makes you a mirror
if
you know
how to look.
