The Letter C
Today was the third time we met in the lift
You said you watched too many movies last night
I often think how interesting life will be, if one scene can CUT! to another, like in the movie:
Two people meet in the street, say hi, CUT!, now they’re sitting in the café.
If life can be like that, I hope every time we meet and say hi in the lift will be CUT! to somewhere else:
Like to your office maybe. Suddenly, I’m your colleague
Or to the rooftop. Be careful, we’re spies actually
Or to the restaurant. But there’s no restaurant in this building
Or to the beach. I wish
Or to my bedroom. I find myself alone, after I wake up from dreaming of meeting you in the lift. Again
I wonder if, like me, you also hope that these lift meetings will lead to somewhere, if not CUT! to there. I prefer CUT! because I’m impatient
Or maybe because I’ve got not much time left
by the time you finally read this letter
[which is tomorrow actually]
I’ll be on my way
to a place far far away
from this building
to work in another
and will be taking another lift
[We have restaurants in that building though]
I hope I sound like we’re in a movie because you said you like movies
Maybe we can try acting in one
Like meeting in some places … places we can say hi and CUT! to more places … to wherever we want … like restaurant, beach, and yes, lift …
to a movie theater
Wherever you want
What do you think?
Call me
And I’ll CUT! to there
