He saw you today.

You were walking

in the hospital when

he went to bring

his grandma flowers.

He froze,

not knowing what

to do as he saw you

walk into his

grandmother’s room.

He noticed

how much paler

you were looking

and wondered if it

was because of him

that you’re sad.

You walked out

and back into the elevator

without seeing him.

And all he could think

was why you were there.
