sob story.

she was sitting there,
hands across the table
in his,
eyes looking
across the table
into his,
in another world where
she could not be touched
by anyone
but him

and only his voice could
bring her comfort
and only his company
could make her happy
and only he
could be the one
for her

and if they weren't something yet,
they would be soon

there was love there
in that moment

she loved him
as i watched from the outside
