Beads of sweat drip down my forehead as I am dazzled by your precious eyes, like two gems.
Each time you come around, you don't see me, you don't talk to me, but silently I want you to
Desperately want me like I want you. You pass me by, smiling at thinner women and I am here,
Anxious to talk to you. Anxious for you to see me. You never do but I always smile at you when
Zealously walk on by. I'm enchanted by the mere thought of your gem-like eyes. My heart does
Zing as you pass by me, a breath of fresh air to my lungs. You always smell clean, like sophistication.
Love beats down my heart like a wolf beats down its prey. I almost feel a connection to you, though
I've never heard your voice, for you have never even said hi. I say hi all the time, but you do not.
No one understands this love I feel. Everyone tells me I am a fool but they are the fools. Damn them.
God herself wouldn't understand this bright, fiendish ray of love. It is my business and no one else's.
Day after day, I approach him, smile and walk away. He's never even noticed me. He just walks on,
Ecstatic about his day ahead of him. I cower to him when I see him walk through this espresso house.
Vicariously do I wish to be the woman he someday marries. But, me. I'm just me. Ordinary and ugly.
I'm plain, and boring and far, far from pretty. I've never dated, never been kissed, never even been in
Love with someone who loved me back. All I have is fantasies, dreams, and foolish girl hopes of love.
