To the woman near the italian ice stand at the outdoor movie

To the woman near the italian ice stand at the outdoor movie

The man who was sitting next to you,
You broke his heart without
trying.
Seemed like he hoped to see
you again,
and it was hard to tell
what you wanted.

You watch the movie -
left leg crossed,
let foot bouncing,
cell phone clutched
under crossed arms.

Where did the italian ice stand
go?
I woke up & it was gone,
but you were still there.
