Check Please

"Check please.." Pause. Breathe. Think. This is the part of the night that could change my life! The part of the story in the movie where everyone is sitting on the edge of their seats, Where the music composed in the background gains speed, Where camera angles are switching back and forth rapidly, Where the cast is mostly using body language in the place of voice acting. No dialog. Just deep breathes and stares. Notions of desires, where emotions are shared. Is this real?!? Is this really happening?!? Is the night still young? Is it good if she's laughing?? Or is it coming to an end?.. Was our meeting a blip? A side story or side mission or a time that I should forget?.. No... Breathe.. Think.. No pause is needed. Now is the time to show her this evening, was the best, I mean what could be better? Time spent in her presence defines my pleasure. So speak! No... Breathe.. First before words. Thinking is done. Pausing is done. I know what I want, this battle is won. And all I did after saying check please, Was give you my all, Now you're all that I need. -G.K. Nilsen 2024
