today, i had seen mary. she had on a beautiful yellow sundress that complimented her skin very well. she had a huge smile on her face the whole time.

we shared some glares once in a while, but never full stares.

she was with her group of friends and i was with mine.

she would always look my way once in a while, but i'd look away. i was too afraid to face her. i was afraid her beauty might take over my small mind.

the day ended just like that. us glancing at each other but never saying a word. me always looking away whenever she'd look my way.

do i regret looking away? yes, i do. so very much.

oh how i wish i could travel back in time and find the guts to go up to her or even look ms. mary clark in the eye.

she was everything.

she was perfect.
