the two girls on the train,
who look so different yet seem to be close as ever.
are you best friends?
schoolmates?
lovers, i daresay?
you, in leather shorts and a velvet choker,
her, in faded jeans and a snapback.
you look at her like she holds the secrets of the universe in her eyes,
and she glances at your mouth every time you speak.
