I'm yet unaware of
The exact moment it struck me,
The release as the feign waned
Or the facade lost its guard.
Was there a particular time when
The music I was listening to
Became the music I loved,
Just because I loved it?
Like an adolescent, headphoned hoodie
Stood, cornered, unaware
Of the train's announcements
Or the clamouring,
Concentrating only on the sounds
Vibrating directly in her ear,
I sat absorbed in the lines on the page
Forgetting to look interesting.
Why would I want to look interesting
When at some insignificant
Moment in time,
I learned the significance
Of being interested?
