in that settee you sat yesterday
alone
and I passed by you
and secretly awaited
the shaking to the edges,
the frantic warnings,
the browns turning into crimson,
all the heart's telltale signs of just how lost
I am to you,
but there was none.
It seems like you've shared a personal experience or a piece of writing about a moment where you had certain expectations or hopes for a reaction from someone, but those expectations were not met. It can be disappointing when we anticipate a particular response or connection and it doesn't happen. However, it's important to remember that people may have their own reasons for not reacting in a certain way, and it's not always a reflection on our own worth or how they feel about us.
If you'd like to discuss or analyze this moment further, please provide more context or ask a specific question.
