feel a tap
turn around
empty hand
hopeful eyes
downward glance
hurts too much
to let my
heart be broken
No!
I force
my eyes to
meet his eyes
my lips to
break a smile
he deserves
the dignity

eye contact is hard (tricky, too, when you can't tell if people are staring or being friendly)
I like this, Renee. Thank you so much for your last blog post, also! It's so good to hear your perspective. (I was in a mosque today... and was politely told that I had to wear a headscarf. I didn't have anything with me that would do, so I had to leave. But it made me think of you, and yeah, I do feel immodest at times being in Malaysia, especially when I'm mostly around the Muslim Malays. But there are Indians and Chinese here too, so I'm not such an anomaly.)
joy,
rebecca
