After we kissed, something must have happened, something not all that good. I remember sitting on the steps of our apartment by myself and the large gray door opening. She walked out into the orange fall sky. I asked if she wanted to talk, she stopped, with her back towards me, she said she needed to think, and walked away into the crowd of people across the street by the lake. I could see her for a time, and I finally lost her in the sea of fall.
