3 / 30 : the space between.

i slept a lot today until the mentor/mentee dinner. i love my kids and all my fellow mentors. yayayayayayay. now i have the itis.

the space between

my leg is nervously pumping under the table
and an uneasy shy smile spreads like butter
across my cocoa colored face

he speaks like philly while
he speaks of physics and philippians
he's here to get his phD in a field that is literally
out of this world but right now
he's studying my words and my smile

i can't help but to enjoy the moment
despite the fact that i'm in the middle of
a crowded restaurant near campus
and there is 2 feet of table between us 2
the space between has never seemed
so inconsequential
