We crossed paths again today, if only for a few seconds. Your eyes lit up, and you gave a bashful smile as you muttered a "Hi" before you walked off. That's all it took for you to make my day. Maybe you know it, maybe you don't. I like to think that maybe, just maybe I'm a nice highlight in your day as well. Your smile is inviting, yet I just hesitated and only smiled back. A while back ago, I did finally gather my courage and introduced myself to you. I even asked for your number, only to have my suspicions realized when you replied with that you have a significant other. Yet there was this look of endearment in your eyes, perhaps I had charmed you with my awkward nervousness. My face must have read, "Oh, of course." after you told me. After all, I'm sure I'm not the only one that's seen the beauty that is your existence. To be honest, I pretty much had all but given up after that. I thought you'd avoid me after my botched attempt to get to know you better. Yet a few days later, we crossed paths again. Though inebriated, I can clearly remember you calling out my name as I entered. My roommate who was with me in my journey to find nourishment that could only satisfied by a good pizza, asked why someone was so ecstatic to see me. I wish I knew. You're the perfect combination of enigmatic and subtle, all the while emulating the perfect story that waits for every page to be touched, to be turned, to be read again and again. You're the stranger I search for in the sea of faces and I pray that I stand apart from the crowd. You're beautiful, and not just in a contemporary sense either. If you were only to see a glimpse of yourself through my perspective, you'd be thrown. Thrown by your own iridescence; like a deer to headlights, you'd be completely awe struck... God knows I was. You're simply beautiful in your existence. Yes, I'm aware that you have a significant other but I'd still like to get to know you better, hope that's not crossing any lines. I just think you're supercalifragilisticexpialidocious, and i don't know too many people like that.
