Fate or Fiction

"I believe in moments and chance. That the universe brings us mystery, uncharted paths and people for what ever big or small purpose they may serve."

I saw the most beautiful man today, he had a wilderly look going on, long wild loose curly hair, a kempt beard and an absolutely adorable beauty mark on his left cheek I instantly fell in lust. He had a darling smile with a sweet awkwardness in his actions, all though he hardly seemed the type to be shy or awkward. He was with a couple, the third wheel perhaps? He caught me staring at him while we all waited in line at the Costco food court and I felt momentarily embarrassed but couldn’t keep my eyes off of him mostly for how stunning he was in all his effortless beauty but also for how familiar he had become in those moments of scarce eye contact, like I’ve seen him or known him once. I had also noticed in those few minutes a last name on the back of his shirt so me being the total creep that I am, I wrote it down discreetly of course. He ordered a slice of pizza and went on his way to the table of three. So I order a frozen yogurt and sat at a table near the wall but not near him. I kept giving the occasional glance his way just to swoon over him further more. Alas, it was time to go, I left thinking of him instantly without giving a second last look, I walked out to the car and all night even this morning couldn’t shake his face and all the particular parts of him. I got on facebook later last night and searched that name and found him, I wanted so badly to add this man but I knew I never could for I know that would be utterly strange. So I wonder in my silence, in my knowing. I of course take everything as a sign but I know I only see what I want to see, that I saw this beautiful man for merely a brief moment and shouldn’t make such a deal of it but sometimes I wonder if the simple seemingly insignificant moments we have mean more than we fathom. Some part of me feels connected to him, some part of me.. some irrational piece in my soul feels that I should know him but I may never know.
