This is a beautiful poem that was shared to me by my friend E. The author was E's professor back in college. For some reason, it reminds me of that line in Vicky Cristina Barcelona, that only unfulfilled love can be romantic.
Morning by Conchitina Cruz
You never know when somebody will walk away from you on a bright day on a busy street, never looking back and
you cannot believe the slow disappearance, cannot believe what is moving away from your reach until the busy street no longer needs its presence to look the same, because it is the same.
And the city offers you its fruits and fish, and the churchgoers lift their veils as they step out in the open
and you know the picture is incomplete but it can stand for itself
and who are you to ask for more, who are you to insist on hunger?
It IS a beautiful poem. May I repost? :)
