Description
There is a slight tremor of preparation for a date: new trainers, a suit ‘for good luck’, an internal list of rules - as if love were not a feeling, but a strategic board game. The text conveys both excitement and caution: a step forward, a glance over the shoulder to make sure you don't return to the ‘start’ square.
There is an ironic honesty in this - an admission that the heart is still held hostage, no matter how strictly the rules of ‘fair play’ are followed. A nervous smile hides behind the beats, and between the lines there is a quiet desire for this attempt to be the winning game.
