Stood by my missus in the lobby.
Asked to carry bags of Madame.
Elevators rush to the sea.
Rummaged through my coat for the key.
After tea lounged on the sofa.
My lady spoke of everyone she knew there.
She paused.
Grabbed my wrist.
Said,"Now, darling there he is."
I looked up.
My surroundings stirred and smeared.
His eyes calm and distant.
His mouth so severe.
Though half his age I was.
I've never been in love.
Before then.
Max, you're so distraught.
Perhaps, I'll help you out.
