My heart flutters while
Looking down the fluorescently lit hallway
passing empty desks;
inboxes full
outboxes empty.
My heart moves up my throat
with longer wing strokes
as I move further down the hallway
Eyes meet my own
At the end of the hall
through the window
they are my own.
my chest can no longer hold my heart
It bursts forth
forcing my mouth
into a contorted "O"
in the reflected window
I shut my eyes,
Turn away from the window
and its view of the world
to head back down the fluorescent hallway once more.
