My feelings for you took me completely by surprise
On that cold December night
December 7, the anniversary of the Pearl Harbor attack
That should have been a warning, right?
I took this job for the extra money
Not for friendship or romance
How dare you flirt and be so charming
I never had a chance
You comforted me when I was down
You really seemed to care
But when I tried to reach out to you
You vanished into thin air
We have very little in common
We hardly talk at all
When we do it’s small talk and pleasantries
Not like you talk with your friends in the hall
Is what I am feeling love or lust
Infatuation or mere attraction
I openly admit I haven’t a clue
But I’m open to suggestions
It appears I’m in a crisis
The beginnings of the midlife swing
Maybe I’ve gone completely insane
Perhaps I just want a fling
Or maybe it’s psychological
More than that I cannot add
It’s simple human nature
I want what I can’t have
Whatever it is, one thing is for certain
Even a fool can see
This relationship was doomed from its inception
For he is only 21, and I am 43
