When his gaze
met hers
across the room,
what
he meant to say
with his wink
was, ‘You entrance me’
‘I want to know you.’
‘I will fill your life with joy.’
But when she looked
again,
tears poured down his cheeks,
while he blinked feverishly,
so she looked away,
toward another sultry smile.
When his gaze
met hers
across the room,
he had much to convey
with his winking eye
but all his dreams
were destroyed
by a lens-bound fly.

And on a personal note: I like stories with a twist:-)
soooo sad! I gave up lenses to avoid such moments and now struggle to keep my glasses clean enough to see the world…
Ditto.
(I confess that I was thinking of eye lenses, rather than contact lenses, but I don’t suppose it matters, really).
Definitely made me laugh. 🙂
I’m glad
Well that was just fun lol. Maybe not in the same situation, but I can definitely empathize with such a scenario.
Glad you had a giggle, James. 😉
Loved this!

Well written with a lovely, humorous ending, enjoyed it 🙂
