Love in the air


It seems to be everywhere I look. Love, and manifestations of it. In the way couples play with each other's hands... in the way they whisper to each other softly, and stare into the depth of each other's eyes... in the way they touch one another's bodies... in the way they close their eyes and kiss.

Somehow I seemed to notice it more today... in the train, on the streets, in the shops, and even between two of my friends who unofficially seem to have become a couple. Even 'kids', probably no more than thirteen, were so deep into each other at the busstop! I looked out the window as the flat, gray landscape rolled passed. You try to look at something else, to focus on the trees and sheep going passed you outside the window, but someehow your mind turns back to the intimacies and warmth between two people in love. I turn away, try to block away the feelings that are caused by what I see around me, but trying to block it out seems to make it all a little worse.

I guess at least I can come home and find comfort in the fact that Kitty is there waiting for me.
Is it comfort, or perhaps a little sad?
