Yesterday I met a girl with the prettiest eyes,
She told me she was still searching for purpose,
Surely it can’t be that deep, I said to her…as a joke,
And when she laughed it was so hauntingly beautiful,
And everything in motion seemed to pause for a brief moment,
She smiled, said nothing more and tucked the single lock of hair in her face behind her ear,
She was so pretty…
I don’t remember much of what happened, because before I knew it, she was clapping her hands together in glee,
The next moment she was sobbing, making me question my 20/20 vision,
When I woke up, though, she was gone.
