You sat across from me, nose buried in a well-worn copy of "Catcher in the Rye." Our eyes met right before DeKalb Avenue—I smiled, you blushed, and then the crowd swept you away before I could say hello. If you see this, let's finish the chapter together.

You played "Creep" on your guitar between 14th St and Jay St, and our eyes met as you sang the chorus. I left you a dollar, but wish I’d left my number instead. Let's make some music together?

It was pouring and my umbrella flipped inside out just as you offered yours outside Grand Central. I laughed, you laughed, then you ran for your train before I could even say thank you—or ask your name.
