the click click of your high heels
you know we can hear your confidence before you even enter the room
and you like that
as the music sways over your head
rolling like the hills i used to know
through your hair in waves with the wind
eyes lined with the color of dead coals
and lips the vibrant red
of an oozing cherry pie
the great slivery rings
sparkle like the stars
but remind me more of the moon
as they bob up and down
gently brushing your shoulders
your smart, yet relaxed composure
and impeccable taste in fashion
as you slide into your seat,
prideful
yet not arrogant
at the head of the table
you listen with feigned rapture to the ramblings of your peers
i catch your eyes, expecting a cold silence
however
the light brown of your irises is warm and comforting
with just a hint of excitement
like a spicy tea on a fall afternoon
like the song that plays in my head over and over
you dont belong at this boring work meeting
and neither do I.
