"Am I in love? --yes, since I am waiting.
The other one never waits.
Sometimes I want to play the part of the one who doesn't wait; I try to
busy myself elsewhere, to arrive late; but I always lose at this game.
Whatever I do, I find myself there, with nothing to do, punctual, even
ahead of time. The lover's fatal identity is precisely this:
I am the
one who waits."
