Moment No 1

I’m walking out of quick trip
You’re walking inside
Eye contact that feels like body contact
The smile isn’t missing
I respond with something favorable
I know we’ll probably never see each other again
But knowing we were both thinking something similar means everything
That moment it’s framed in my better days gallery
No you’re not my person but for 3 seconds it felt like it
And everything was alright with the world
p.s. a smile can change everything…

A smile can change everything, and sometimes we feel like we had that connection for a second to know that it isnt that, and the person isnt meant for us. I really love the flow and sincerity of your voice, and how youv expressed here! So good to read you after a long time! Sending you light always
