Met Accidentally In Kansas City

Met accidentally in Kansas City’s Halloween alley
Our eyes met a couple of times; I know yours are brown
No idea what color mine are now, or my name even
Do not remember much of anything else

Except your looks
Your hair
Your nose
Your smile

I knew you were going to be important to me.
And of course, you became my moon and sun.
My trees and stars, my flowers and rain.
In a short amount of time

I could not breathe without thinking of you.
I was practically your stalker, until you shook me off.
Releasing me to the wind, maybe sad that we had….
