One two three

She walks down the hall

She smiles at nothing

Her mind is nowhere but everywhere

She had a bagel with strawberry jam

She cried last night

Her mother is baking her a cake for tonight

And so, he also knows

She walks every tuesday afternoon

Around 4:30

Near the dark woods

Four five six

He knows her smell well

He believes she belongs to him

The only problem

They never crossed paths

He was nothing to her at the moment

But that will change

But she will only know him for a second

Seven eight nine

It's a rainy afternoon the tuesday

He hides, but not really

There is no need to hide

She doesnt know him

But that same second she didn't know

She knew

Ten eleven twelve 

And so she was gone

That night

Forever

The next day

Benny, that was his name

Walked around that same path

With no care in mind
