I know this is a long shot, I have taken pains to insure anonymity, You made space for me to sit when I got on the train, Maybe I’m reading too much into this, We used to meet for coffee weekly, I just delivered food to you, You were with two friends on the uptown C train, There was no one else in the back of the bus, Last Tuesday at six, I can’t forget, Trying one more time, Spiky short hair black, We both looked back, Hoping you check this, A pink polka-dot shirt, Please write back, Definitely you noticed, Park bench Union Square, Tattooed in Mets cap, I caught your eye twice, You must know who you are, We briefly chatted as you ate your pizza, Guy at deli across from Rite Aid, Girl in black leggings and white T shirt, It was hard to hear over the sound of the water, Our eyes met briefly
