Coffee Shop Connection

I passed you by
in that coffee shop
holding my latte in my hand
and my list of things in my head
when something pulled me
back in the door;
your energy magnetizing me.
I slid into your mind for a moment
past the superficial small talk
anything but the weather.
As you bowed your head in gratitude,
I remembered we
are connected, you and me
tethered by our humanity.
