she was always noticing.
and he was always noticing her noticing.

she noticed the creases in people's foreheads.
the thoughts settled deep within their minds
that they hadn't even known existed themselves.

she saw the things
most people wouldn't think to see
but the things that mattered the most.

and he watched as she noticed
focusing on something completely irrelevant
yet so relevant all at once.

he sat behind her
seeing the way her chin rested in her palms
the way she swept her long auburn hair
over her delicate shoulders.

if only she noticed enough
to turn around
and notice him.
