I was minding my own business
living my life
I was happy. Very happy.

And then in a store one morning he changed that.
I knew he'd be trouble
something about him said to ignore him.
So I did.

But he wouldn't allow me to walk past him on the aisle.
"Go away" I said with my hands, with my eyes, with my movement in the other direction.
But no, he wouldn't go away and he
changed directions.

I ignored him thinking he'd just get lost in time
and I'd be free to live my life not
thinking of him or the possibility of him.
And then he caught up to me forcing his basket into mine.

I was minding my own business
living my life
I was happy. Very happy.
And then he came along pushing his way into my life, my world and my brain. Making me want to be with him.

I was happy and knowing him makes me happier.
