Admiration From Afar

i am that guy in the corner watching as many try but fail....i admire you from afar i am not interested in getting with you i am just interested in watching you just be the way you move....the way you present your caricature it is like i poem that i just cannot write....but the words dwell in my head yeah, we say hello to each other yeah, we smile at each other in passing yeah, we steal stares at each other wondering what the other is thinking the difference is, i imagine myself doing things that some may deem "nasty" you, on the other hand, just stop, look, and wonder for however long your attention span allows you that being known by me, i remain in the corner watching oh how wonderfully your hips sway....oh, how lovely your legs look when you walk i am not interested in loving you i am just interested in appreciating the beautiful, confident black woman that you are the way you light up a room....the way you voice your opinion and get your point across you are out of my league by many unreachable miles knowing this, i know that i will never come close to knowing you however, as long as my eyes are able to see, you will always have an affectionate admirer in me....
