Day 170

Once upon a time we were two figures fumbling in the dark, trying to discover one another.
Then a flash of light came and with it, a moment of brilliant vulnerability.
Only a moment; but one in which we both were witness to what would never be unseen.
I saw in you a terrifying depth of complexity and promise. Like it;s night time and the ocean and skyline are indecipherable, and I'm just  swimmer trying to find dry land.
In awe. Overwhelmed.
And yes: scared.
What you see in me ... well. I guess I never asked.
I just assumed you saw me for what I felt like in front you: small.
Funny, I never thought to ask.
I should've asked.
A moment's sight. Forever more shy.
