The Girl Across the Hall
Potential is a wondrous optimism. Noticing someone across the hall and quietly racing through all of the potential you could have with that one person.
You may offer a smile, if you’re kind, and stroll along your way. But the thought of them doesn’t leave.
For in this moment, they can be whatever you wish them to be, whoever you desire in a relationship of any kind.
The miraculous part is that the right person isn’t any of your delusions. They’re unimaginably, simply…
better.
It’s exciting, fantasizing, as you watch from a distance until the moment you meet.
A state of vulnerability, having you doubt the phrase about to leave your lips, creating every fact unknown in hopes to begin the process of trust to eventually enter the process of love.
