the Boy

I was walking on the sidewalk

listening to what my best friend

was lecturing to me about

although my mind suddenly drifted

when my eyes landed on a

familiar someone

Him.

My heart dropped.

I haven't seen him in 2 months

he was sitting at a table in an

outdoor restaurant where his

hazel eyes were glued to

his phone screen

 I noticed how his

hair was a bit longer

he even still had that blue

bracelet around his wrist

"Who's that?" my friend asks

snapping me out of my thoughts

I look at her before my

eyes slowly drift back over

to him.

"No one." I turn my head and

walk forward,

walk as if I never saw

the boy I used to love.

The boy I still love.
