People,
including myself,
always find themselves
wondering why
the people they like
looking at -- never
look back; wishing they will;
like they do, oftentimes.
What I, we,
don't or may never know
is that those people
from afar can be like
toys --
there is that possibility
within our childlike and
hopeful hearts
that when we're not looking
they, like toys, do look back at us
that when we think dormant
one look
and our hearts come back to life.
