Scented air

There are days like today, that I wish time would stop, and the world to pause, like a motion freeze scene in a movie, so that I could run all the way to your office and find you. So that I could hold you in my arms for a few moments, rest my head on your shoulder and promise myself that a good day will come, when I have the courage to tell you that I care for you, that you've been on my mind all this time; A good day when I am not afraid any more. Then, when my heart is comforted again, I'll run back to this cube, behind this L-shaped desk and let the world move on again, hoping you'll notice my perfume in the air...

Gloomy Sunday

It's May 1st. The trees are in bloom, and the tulips are all open, yet it is still a bit cold here. I walked into a room on Saturday and met someone. I talked to him, watched him speak, and spend the whole day with him and the rest of the group. He was attractive, and calm, with pretty green eyes. I thought to myself, how come I never noticed green eyes can be so beautiful...
We were away, and he gave me a ride back to town. We talked. And I smiled, as much as you can on the first work meeting with a coworker without being rude or flirtatious. He asked some questions, many of them personal, and I was reminding myself to stop daydreaming about him. That he is not interested in me in that sense, he is just simply curious.
I see many attractive guys, neither of them attract me. I might consider them for a physical relation at most, but that is it. I hardly feel my heart beating faster and harder, and I don't feel at ease about it nowadays. I like to have someone in my life, someone who is here to stay, and won't walk away with my heart in his hand. I can't accept that someone will be trustworthy and I have no clue how someone is going to convince me to trust them. All I know is that it will happen, and I'd know they are right by instinct.
I came to my room, thinking that I'd like to fall in love again. I like to spend warm weekends with someone special. I love to watch myself falling for someone, with each laughter, each gesture, each smile. Opened my laptop, sent a thank you email to the group, and added them on LinkedIn. Then updated my FaceBook status: Today could have had our first kiss. Today is so wasted...
