black and white valentine
I see her everywhere. In the way the smallest bird's black eyes on a pivoted neck catches mine in that fleeting moment, grasping my little finger, bewildered yet unafraid. In the vertigo of white cream in the aromatic quiet cup of java on a ten degree morning, skinny-dipping like her rhythmic dance she only performs to a grateful audience of one. In the sound of her lonely voice, distantly trembled in the black speaker of the only cracked-glass phone booth left on planet Earth, her hazel eyes closed, tears streaming stealthily under masking blonde hair, in that blushing moment when she screams in a whisper I Love You too.

Wow. So deeply and evocatively written. "when she screams in a whisper..." Wonderful. Thank you.
Yup! "Screams in a whisper" is the best line.

How that encapsulates loneliness...
Through your eyes ~ we all see her.
i like the bird's eye point of view
haunting suppleness
This really captures her aloneness, within herself, how she is caught in her own fantasy world: ' that blushing moment screams in a whispter' - well done.
This reached in...grabbed my heart...and squeezed it...
Sweetly sad. You can feel the raw emotion in this one.
You had me at 'I see her everywhere' but then came that alarming last sentence...
Wow!
