Captivated
You captivated me.
Standing under the bright streaks of sunlight with your hands inside your pockets, on top of the steps of some cool pyramid shaped structure somewhere in downtown LA.
I remember I kept looking up at you.
Wanting you to look this way.
Wanting you to notice me.
& when you didn't, my heart grew sad & disheartened. So I turned around & began to walk away. But as I walked away, I felt your eyes on the back of my head.
I knew you were watching.
I knew you noticed me.
So I turned back around to face you, to see you quickly glance away as if you were never watching.
I turned away again, shoulders drooped & heart empty.
I began to walk away.
& then I felt it again.
Your eyes were on me.
You were watching.
You noticed me.
While my back was turned to you, & I thought you didn't care, you were still captivated by me.
