Foolish Child
I sit here dreaming of a man I met once sometime ago.
He is handsome and elegent, a true gentleman.
We met for the briefest of moments in life and have not seen each other since.
I remember him as clearly as I remember waking this morning.
Handsome, adored by hundreds of women, all prettier than me.
I feel like a conceited, foolish child to believe that I could compare to any of them.
To believe that a man like him would want to be with a no one like me.
I see his picture and I feel a pain within - I love him and I know he could not want to return the feeling.
The very first time I saw him my heart began beating again.
I felt as if I were a teenager falling in love for the first time all over again.
He is everything I could want.
But I knew that I was not what he could want.
I can not bring myself to tell him to his face how much I care for him.
I am so afraid of seeing the rejection in his eyes.
I do not know what I would do if I saw that look.
I feel like my heart would stop beating.
I would still live on, but never feel again.
He has no attachment to me nor have I to him.
I fear I am nothing more than just a bored and lonely woman who misread a moment of kindness.
Truly a Foolish Child.
