You stand by my side, unbothered and settled
I stand still , awkward and possessed 
I have a lot of going on in my mind and now I mix you up in one of my thoughts
You sometimes look me in the eye 
My clothes are rugged,my hands so dry 
Oh please don't look into my hair ,I look so untidy
But trust me , I'm quite sober 
Oh thank god I'm wearing a mask ,he might not know who I'm 
Look at you ,you're so clean and maintained
And a little mysterious
What is that mind even thinking of?
Are you counting me in your thoughts too?
Or am I just another stranger you'd forget as soon as you reach home 
I wish I could read it 
The truths behind those mysteriously beautiful eyes
But why are you staring? Like you've known me since a lifetime 
Maybe you are teasing me with those eyes , 
And I kind of love that attention 
Knowing you wanted me to notice you 
We might have come a long way to here today 
Our paths however were meant to be crossed 
And now here we are 
Standing together near to each other waiting for our respective destinations
I always used to be in a hurry 
But today I wish to stay a bit,just a little more 
For that millisecond glance of yours 
Oh the bus is here 
The bus that now takes him to his place ,away from me 
He steps into it moving farther away from me 
I wished for him to turn back 
He didn't 
Maybe that was it 
With the bus moving,the hope of seeing him ever again vanished
I wish I had asked him his name ,or his address or something that could make me contact him 
The shyness and social anxiety in me just couldn't think of doing it 
There was a little pinch in the heart for that truth
But there will always be that moment to remember ,the time we shared together standing besides each other for a little fragment of time 
Carrying our own stories ,our own sorrows!
