Will she be my Valentine?

Will she be my Valentine?

I looked into her eyes, thinking she will be my Valentine but later I realized she looked me down.

I went behind her, thinking she will be my Valentine, but later I realized she felt I was a Nuisance.

I sat opposite to her, thinking she will be my Valentine, but later I realized she felt I was a disturbance.

I gave up on my Valentine and entered a coffee shop ordering a black coffee to mourn, a young and a beautiful girl sat next to me, I looked at her with a sarcastic smile, but she gave a genuine smile and said "I am your Valentine"

I said " I had a valentine in my mind but she looked me down, she felt I was nuisance and a disturbance"

She said " I was standing on the terrace, expecting you to look up, I came behind expecting you to turn back and I was sitting opposite expecting you to notice me, but you never paid attention to me"

I asked her "Who are you?"

She said with pain " I am an opportunity" and added " If you look up, you will attract me, if you look behind you will understand your past mistakes and if you think about your future you can attract me"

I put down my head in shame and stared at my black coffee for a while and raised my head to see her walking away from me.

Later I understood that opportunities are my Valentine and I need to spot it, before it Vanishes.
