decline

 
daring myself closer to you
you look good girl, own it
with a sideways glance I get brave

then back out with a piercing look from you
I've never been affected that way
moving over my soul a man of substance
one of value and intellect
I'm not sure I measure up

our circles merge and it begins
I'm on my tip toes trying to stay on your level
your depths amaze me

caressing me with innuendos
you see me smile and the mood is lightened
I turn pink then blush deeply when you take interest

my feelings of admiration apparent
I hope my feelings of lust are not
twist an emotion and throw it on the winds
the place is full of gossip
looking around I can see meaningful stares
it's clear he's highly thought of

taking my time I get to know you
just enough to dream
shaking myself I wake up

you give me an offer and I decline
the moment too heady for me
my heart might get broke
