I saw her once

and that’s all it took

for me to become smitten

by her androgynous look

Her infectious smile

brought life to my senses

her unique style was no match

for my heart’s defenses

(The rush is real

when you want to feel

your crush for real.)

Keeping her a fantasy is a must

given my situation

except I had one too many

disclosed my desire

with no hesitation

It was subtle, tho

perhaps she will not notice

offering me time to refocus

and figure out

this woman’s purpose
