Saturday night, you wore silver shoes and danced like nobody was watching during the jazz concert. I was the guy with two left feet, wishing I had the courage to join you.

You bumped into me by the reading room, and my latte went flying. We both laughed, and you offered to buy me a new one. I regret not taking you up on it—are you still around for a raincheck?

We kept making eye contact between Canal Street and 125th—your red umbrella brightened up the whole rainy morning. I wanted to say hi, but the train was too packed and you disappeared at 59th. Coffee sometime?

You played “Stand By Me” on your guitar, filling the car with music and smiles. I was the girl in the red coat who mouthed the words but was too shy to say hi when we got to 14th Street.

You were reading Murakami, headphones in, and smiled at me every time we made eye contact between stops. I got off at Bedford and lost my nerve—if you see this, coffee sometime?

You were singing softly to yourself, headphones in, eyes closed between 14th and Jay St. I wanted to join the harmony, but chickened out. If you remember the guy with the red scarf mouthing the words, let's make music together outside of rush hour.

You offered me shelter under your polka-dot umbrella while we waited for the 4 train in a sudden downpour. I’d love to share coffee instead of just rain next time.

Our yoga mats tangled during sunset class, and we laughed about being “in sync.” Afterwards, you waved goodbye before I got up the nerve to ask for coffee. Maybe fate will untangle us again?

You played guitar and sang “Just Like Heaven,” making the whole car smile. Our eyes met as you passed your hat, but the doors closed before I could say more. Your music made my rush hour magical.

We both reached for the last everything bagel—then gave it up for the other. You winked and said, “Only in New York.” I left with a plain, but would trade it for a conversation with you.
