To Have a Piece of You

Some say that you are lovely 
          In my mind I say it's true. 
Others would want you to be their princess 
          And I think they're serious too. 

One would say the pride she has 
          For a daughter that you are. 
A father's dream won't want you on a horse-back 
          But in someone's luxurious car. 

Strangers are bewildered 
          For your smile they see so rare; 
A Casanova has his antics 
        That only you he cares. 

The rich would want to take you 
          To a high-end restaurant; 
Or even will entice you 
          An adventure to Rio Grand. 

A new friend  makes it  sure to shake your hand 
          Or take your picture too; 
But all I have is a furtive glance 
          To have a piece of you.

Just feeling lonesome and nothing to do and needing someone 
to communicate yet hesitant to send a text message.  All 
I've got to do is to fill in the mind with something to put into 
writing.  Then I got these verses of which the reader may perceive 
a "low-profiled character" or simply "an effortless desire"..
