It's nice to be seen. Not just noticed, as another random glob of flesh, but as a person.
When I first saw you, I really didn't think anything of it. I've seen hundreds of girls just like you in the mall. For some reason, you stuck in my mind. Maybe it was the Slayer T-shirt, the same one I have. Maybe it was the way you walked in to the room. Sitting right in the middle of the lecture hall, right in front of me. Personally, I think it was the blue streaks in your otherwise black hair. I couldn't hear a word the professor said, I was mesmerized by that hair. It was simple, but perfect. I wanted to touch it, but I couldn't. That would've been pretty creepy.
After that class I followed you out to the smoking area. When I saw you pull out a pack of Turkish Silvers, my brand, I knew I had to talk to you. I knew that you were there, in that moment, for a reason. I wanted to know everything about you, and then some. I pretended not to have a lighter, stupid I know, but it worked. You held your cigarette up for me to light off of, keeping it in your mouth. As I lit mine, I looked into your eyes, and I saw nothing. No hope, no shine, nothing. We talked for the duration of our smoke. I had to go to theatre class, but I gave you my number. You didn't call.
The next day in class, you sat right next to me. We talked, causing Professor Lobdell to stop twice, but I didn't care. I was learning more in that 50 minute period than I had all quarter. It was, after all, a human relationships course. After class we went outside.
This continued for about a week, gradually you started opening up to me. Every day I forgot my lighter, and every day I saw the same thing in your eyes. Nothing.
Finally, you called me. You wanted to to meet me for a cup of coffee. I had a paper due the next morning, but that can wait. We met at the shitty little coffee house on Garfield Street. We were the only people there, it was perfect. We stepped outside, despite the freezing temperature, to have a smoke. I gave you my jacket. As I lit my cigarette, I looked into your eyes, like I always do, and I saw something. I still don't know what it was, but it was something, and that was all I needed. As I took my smoke down, I slowly leaned in to kiss you. It was like something out of a shitty movie, but at that moment it felt perfect. I didn't care about the cold. I didn't care that there were people gawking. I didn't care that a guy was getting pulled over by a cop 30 yards away. All I cared about was that moment.
After the coffee house closed, we went to the bowling alley. When they closed, we snuck in to Sprinker Park. You fell asleep in my arms on top of the big rock. You looked so peaceful, so pristine, I didn't want to wake you. So I didn't. We layed there for about an hour, your head on my chest, my arms wrapped around you. I played with a strand of your beautiful black hair. You'd dyed the blue streaks out, but I didn't care.
When you woke, I walked you to your car. I kissed your forehead as we parted ways for the night. The next day in class, we both terrible colds, but I don't think either of us cared. It was a class built to hold 150, with 24 students, yet you sat on my lap. All throughout class, played with your hair.
I've touched it hundereds of times since then. Every chance I get. It's almost grown out to its natural color again, but I don't care. It's still as beautiful as the first time I saw it.
It's been almost 4 months since our first cigarette together. This morning, after American lit, we went and had a smoke together. Like always I gazed into our eyes as we lit up. I noticed something, something I hadn't seen before. Your eyes are blue. I guess I hadn't noticed it before. Until now, I guess I've always seen you. But I never noticed you. I've never really taken the time to see how you are, as opposed to who you are.
You're getting kind of fat.

I should have known better
Than to let you go alone
It's times like these
I can't make it on my own
Wasted days, and sleepless nights
An' I can't wait to see you again
I find I spend my rime
Waiting on your call
How can I tell you, babe
My back's against the wall
I need you by my side
To tell me it's alright
Cos I don't think I can take anymore
IS THIS LOVE THAT I'M FEELING
IS THIS THE LOVE THAT I'VE BEEN SEARCHING FOR
IS THIS LOVE OR AM I DREAMING
This must be love
Cos it's really go a hold on me
A hold on me
I can't stop the feeling
I've been this way before
But, with you I've found the key
To open any door
I can feel my love for you
Growing stronger day by day
An' I can't wait too see you again
So I can hold you in my arms
IS THIS LOVE THAT I'M FEELING
IS THIS THE LOVE THAT I'VE BEEN SEARCHING FOR
IS THIS LOVE OR AM I DREAMING
This must be love
Cos it's really got a hold on me
A hold on me
IS THIS LOVE THAT I'M FEELING
IS THIS THE LOVE THAT I'VE BEEN SEARCHING FOR
Is this love or am I dreaming
