Assignation
I saw you waiting
in the light
stood there waiting
standing there
saw you in
the window's light
standing facing
to the light
from the windows
tall and bright
from the shopping
arcade's light
from the arcade's
neon glare
I saw you shopping
standing there
I saw you standing
shopping there
saw you with the
shopping there
In the arcade windows glare
stood there standing
unaware
stood there standing
sun bleached hair
watched by shoppers
stood to stare
bathed within the
window's light
before the windows
tall and bright
in the light just
standing there
I stood standing
and he stood there
you stood waiting
I stood there
both of us stood
standing there
you stood standing
unaware
I watched you
as he watched
her.

This is very unusual, and very effective. IMO, the precise repetitions and small variations give a real feeling of fascination, almost voyeurism, and passing 'insignificance', like the movements of a crowd.
