Seeing her
She is unobtainable because of social concepts.
Friendly to a fault, not hers.
She cannot hide her beauty, though she tries.
She seems to fight the attention
and doesn't seem to desire it.
To say she's an old man's fancy is to admit my feelings.
But, i will not lie to myself.
I just would like to see her acknowledge that i respect her.
That would be enough for me.
Until then seeing her smile and happy placates my whims.
