UNREQUITED

 I looked calm but my heart wrestled against itself in my chest

She couldn't see but my words gave me away, I was incoherent

I would pay to have this company, but out of her volition stand her next to me

My dream unfolding before my eyes

I had overlooked humiliation to get her number to call

Better to spit my heart out than lament all night

Disappointment met my calls and my text unrequited

Perhaps, wrong timing I said to myself a week ago

This instance, stand I next to the damsel

The reason for my sleeplessness

She stands a goddess, character unblemished and beauty I had worshiped

Alas, she smiled and simply implied NO

Tonight for reminiscences 

But no more sleeplessness for the same cause.
