Letters from a metro rider

Dear man on the metro,

Your subtle smile and dark, curly hair are distracting me. A few peaceful minutes on the train are all that I ask, but instead, I am struck by your beauty and forced with the reminder of the man I don't have. If you turn your dark eyes, hooded with long lashes toward me, do so with a purpose...so that I may crawl in their depths and get lost. Turn your tall frame and casual strides in my direction...so that I may dream it's me your coming toward. Choose to whisper in my ear...so that I can one again be reminded of how the warm tickle of someone's breath feels.
