Meh

I once knew a girl with the sun in her eyes. When I first met her I never noticed how bright they truly were. We were trapped in a classroom me on one side she on the other. One clear and beautiful day we did talk, just off hand a pointless conversation, but when she spoke I could not tear myself away from her eyes. Looking back on it I can hardly remember what it was we talked about but I do remember where we were.
It was a Tuesday during our junior yeah of high school, and we happened to bump into each other in a park near the school. I was taking a much needed walk and I never asked what she was doing. We started talking about all kinds of things we talked so much that we sat down under a tree. It was noon the sun was high and there was a gentle breeze shaking the leaves on their branches. It was at this time that I first noticed her eyes, the shadows of leaves would dance across her face and every so often the sun would shine on her. Each time a ray of light darted across her face her eyes shone a brilliant gold, and each flash was a small taste of true beauty. I have a habit of not being able to control myself when I’ve met someone that has and incredibly gorgeous attribute. The words, “you have beautiful eyes,” flung themselves out of my mouth before I had the chance to stop them. I had thought at the time that I had something incredibly corny and looking back at it I still think that, but she blushed and I blushed and we kept talking for a very long time. At some point all things come to an end especially conversation, and I in my infinite foolishness forgot to get her number.
