They both thought Pp3tEZfE
that a sudden feeling had united them :!3CoC.X|c
This certainty is beautiful, u&bo32fc

They thought they didn't know each other, tb&{[|O^
nothing had ever happened between them. Fg5c;sls
These streets, these stairs, this corridors, )F]E[sga
they could have passed each other long ago |??uVA)\X

I would like to ask them, Y.F:1<FAtf
if they can remember - sxnj`z
perhaps in a revolving door Tp[ub(/;7
face to face one day? dB_\0?jJ-
A "sorry" in the crowd? ]O7I7K
"Wrong number" on the phone? qN+ ngk,:
- but I know the answer. 33[2$FBf
No, they don't remember. ]_|qv1K6

There were signs, indications, WZ@nuK.39T

Three years ago, perhaps ./[%%"
or even last Tuesday, cRT@Cu
this leaf flying 2@:Go`mg
from one shoulder to another? 5"^$3&)
Something was dropped and then picked up. 6/.-V1*O
Who knows, perhaps the ball vanished #Cvjv;

There were handles, door bells, MBXumc_g

another hand was placed; bb+-R_3Kd
suitcases next to one another in the !4]wb!F

Every beginning ^0ipM/Lg

我想问问他们 3!,XR\`[
