ODE Poem: Eyes Met, by Sneha Batabyal

I saw you cross the road,
Unaware of the sight to behold.
I was in my cab ride,
And you were on the other side.
White shirt and headphones on,
Complexities were all long gone.
I looked at you for a while,
And then I saw you smile.
You looked up at me,
And caught me off guard.
I wanted to flee so desperately,
But you walked away without any regard.
