100 Plus: Saw You Looking
I saw you looking at me.
Your girlfriend stood next to you, your arms wrapped around each other as she talked to her friends. And yet you were looking at me.
I know for a fact that your anniversary with her was fast approaching, that she was happily telling her friends about your plans together. And yet you were still looking at me.
My feelings for you were long gone but your gaze made me smile. I can’t deny that I stood just a bit straighter, laughed just a little louder, maybe even spun around to give you a good view. I don’t deny that… just as you can’t deny you were looking at me.
You left soon after that moment passed, your girlfriend pulling you away from my group of friends. You kept your eyes fixed firmly ahead but I wondered if I was still on your mind. How long will that glimpse of me stay with you? A minute, an hour, a day?
However long it may be, just don’t deny you were looking at me.
