We met, both working

A restraunt slum shift.

She was my instant

Infactuation.

I was her- what if?

Or,

What if- I was her?

Our first impression

Ended awkwardly.

She dubbed me weirdo

Which sounds bad,

But she had a good point,

Because I watched her too closely

With an admitted gaze of lechery.

It was one of those cause and effect

Situations where the cause is affection,

And the effect is desperation.

I called her anerexic

Which sounds really bad,

But I added that it didn't bother me.

She laughed at my pitiful gestures,

And mostly ignored me after that.

I didn't really mind it so much,

After all, I wouldn't pick up a romance

Entitled "The Weirdo and the Waitress",

But I'd like her to read my poetry,

Because it means so much more than flowers,

A gesture that I will always refuse

To present her with- They're too over used.

I think I'd read "The Poet and his Muse".
