(Echo 1) – Tetsuya

As I sit and wait near
the mall’s entrance, I
feel a tinge of worry,
annoyed that I’m so
nervous.

My palms are sweaty.

Tsukino said she
wanted to hang
out and she’s
already five
minutes
late.

Today’s afternoon
feels calm.

It’s a cloudy yet
sunny day.

A day I won’t take
for granted.

I stand up from
the bench,

noticing a family
of birds near the
water fountain.

I watch in awe,
realizing how
free birds are
to go wherever
they want.

If only life was
that simple for
humans.
