Expecting nothing

As usual

 

But then

I turned

And I saw

Those eyes

His eyes

 

Hazel

Longing

Beautiful

 

When I saw those eyes

I had to know his name

I needed to

Or at least

That's what I wanted

 

Then

He looked at me

His eyes looking into mine

 

He was smiling

So

I smiled back

That look

That smile

Turned into

 

Hi

Laughs

Hugs

And

More smiles

 

We had become

Friends

And I learned to

Know him

 

He is as lovely

As his eyes

But

Those eyes

Would be hard

To say goodbye to

 

But I knew

We couldn't be

So it had ended

 

Just as the

Warm

Colorful

Autumn

 

Dies into the

Cold

Bitter

Winter

 

It was

One look

One smile

One step the opposite way

 

But just

One look back

Hoping to see his eyes

Looking back

For me
