In The Beginning ... CC #252

In the beginning she was  just a face in the crowd

In the beginning I thought she was rude and loud

In the beginning  I thought “Just look at her hair!”

In the beginning I thought “A face with no makeup. How rare.”

In the beginning I thought “Intriguing, that smile.”

In the beginning I thought “Maybe I’ll stick around for awhile.”

In the beginning I thought “She seems pretentious.”

In the beginning I thought  “A bit insecure, I guess.”

Then you walked over and said, “Hello, I’m Sally!”

Then I thought “Is is possible to be this happy?”

Then I said, “Hello Sally, my name is Tim."

Then she said, “Nice to meet you. Can I see you again?”

Suddenly I realize that  she is a friend in the crowd

Suddenly I realize it’s only her music which is loud.

Suddenly I realize I actually like her style of hair

Suddenly I realize her face is beautiful bare

Suddenly I realize the sun is dim compared to her smile

Suddenly I realize I want to be part  of her life for a long while

Suddenly I realize what I thought pretentious is actually gregarious

Suddenly I realize my own insecurities in my efforts to impress

Suddenly I realize it might be a big mistake leading with my chin

Then  I realize that being together will be great for Sally and Tim.
