I got on the bus today
After talking to Brown about my feelings for you
I went to my favourite seat
The bus was full but my seat and the seat next to it were free
But I almost stood anyway
Right in front of me, facing away from the world
A spot away from where you were you “didn’t” sit a week before
Was a man decked out in full cadet gear
His big black army tote between his legs
Poppy pinned to his heart
Socially awkward and closed off
He got off at your stop
It was Remembrance Day too
Now what are the odds of that?
