I watched for more than a moment
were you in my sightline
or was I just staring 

You were taking selfies
head thrown back
glass raised

laughing and grinning
hugging best buddies
you didn’t glance towards the corner 

where I sat sipping
tart Lime soda
that made my teeth sting 

And there amid your festive fun
the decorations
froze my heart 

Especially the mistletoe
