Latina Woman--Gets on Near 27th and Ditmars Q69 Bus Stop Every Morning (Astoria)

I've been watching you for weeks now, always from a distance. I see you at the bus stop, or walking down the street, or sitting in the park. You always seem so lost in thought, so beautiful and mysterious.

I've wanted to approach you and strike up a conversation, but I've always been too afraid. What if you weren't interested? What if I made a fool of myself? So I've kept my distance, telling myself that I would regret it if I didn't at least try.

But today, something changed. I was walking down the street, lost in thought, when I saw you standing at the bus stop. You were wearing a green coat and a pair of ripped jeans, and you had a backpack slung over your shoulder. I couldn't help but notice the way the sun caught your hair, making it shine like gold.

This time, I didn't hesitate. I marched over to the bus stop and stood next to you, my heart pounding in my chest. I could feel your eyes on me, and for a moment, I thought you were going to say something.

But then the bus arrived, and you boarded it without a word. I watched as it pulled away, taking you out of my life just as quickly as you had entered it.

Now, all I have is this missed connection and the memory of your sparkling eyes and your beautiful smile. I hope that somehow, some way, you will see this and know that I was there, that I wanted to talk to you.

If you're reading this, please take a chance and reach out to me. Maybe we can grab a coffee and get to know each other better. I don't want to keep watching you from afar anymore. I want to be with you, to share in your life and your thoughts. Please, give me this chance.
