I hadn't done anything like this before.
it'd been six years, three boyfriends- two year tenures with the
last one still running
and here i was
on an almost blind date
with a guy i barely knew.
a neighbour, a fellow english enthusiast
dreamy eyes, stick thin
smoker.
that's all i knew of him.

until
a planned coffee date.
only that we didnt really have coffe
and i dont know if it really was a date.

but i do know
that among the 7 fuckin billion people
in the world
i met one more.
a stranger from the hills
who showed me his scars
and let me in
for one hour
into the life of a boy
lost in a huge huge city.
