today... she may have changed her mind

hate to break it

love isn't easy

rejection at every corner

today

she told a man

she loved him...

he crumpled up a nearby paper

and threw it

it softly hit her arm

she was shocked

thought she was rejected

as usual

she readied herself to walk away

but he gently touched her arm

she turned

his mouth turns up into a slight

smile

"that was for taking so long"

she might have changed her mind...
