I fell in and out of imaginary love driving past 66th Street and Fifth Avenue. She was wearing jeans with a black hat, waiting for the light to change. She looked at me and we locked eyes. Just a moment really, but it seemed longer.
I dunno why, but I thew her a wink and she burst out laughing. So she blew me a kiss and waved as she crossed the street. I laughed by myself in my car. For a moment I thought about calling out to her but then I figured, why ruin a perfectly good moment?
The light changed anyway, as it always does so she and I blended back into the 8.2. Maybe it was her again – I still have her heart.
It’s finally Friday. I’m still sick but I think I’m good enough to have some red rum and daydream about Her and what might’ve been.

if you lived in california or i in new york, i think you'd be someone i would like to know on a personal level. you have a way with words. subtle. something about them makes me wish for more.
What a poignant moment. At first I was confused (why the hell didn't you get her number?) but then I realized what you meant with not ruining a perfect moment. Great post!Regards,Leia-Annhttp://everydayinsanity.blogspot.com
Thanks to both of you – that's a great way to start the day…
i LOVE rachael yamagata!a friend of mine introduced me to her a couple years ago.
I'd blow random kisses if guys took the time to wink. Doesn't happen in my neck of the woods though. You're turning into a great resource for music that I have never heard of, but really like. =)
Alana – That's awesome to know. I was planning on asking people what they thought of my musical tastes. I'm glad you like the songs I use; I try to promote music I like that isn't so well known.
Sometimes I wish I had a hat cam to catch those little moments, the connections that occur so spontaneously and unexpectedly.A moment like that can make your whole day feel different.
