That beautiful face

Dear Silent Dark Eyes,
I saw you today in passing. We made eye contact again, like we do every time- like ships blinking, but not winking, at each other in the night. You're beautiful, I think. I go through an entire day seeing human faces, plain and pretty, that stay in the background of my life. But you jump into my vision, and I see a life in front of me- a life full of its own joys and struggles. You are a life with a soul. It's okay if you look at me and see background, because I understand that sensation. I'm not saying I'm in love with you, and I'm not sure that that has anything to do with it. I just want to write down that I noticed. I noticed your life.
