as you monotonously drone on about this, that and the other,
i will not allow the slightest flicker of discontent pass my face,
your melancholy stare intrigues me more than ever,
if you are to not notice the slightest change in my look today,
you can undoubtedly acknowledge it is reminiscent of your own,
that same stare gazed straight back at me not too long ago,
and i noticed, as sudden as it began, it was withdrawn.
smile a little quirky grin and flick a whisp of hair out of your eyes,
and the way your smile curls up around the sides of your face,
so swift, so full of life, i find myself drawn to your simplicity,
your laughter and your persistence to pursue,
i realise you are simply out of my grasp.
