Entanglement

You are a handsome man.
But what should I do?
I'm able to function in your presence.
But barely.....

From the moment you accepted me,
I found myself entranced
by you, a familiar looking man
I'd soon call my boss.

And I am swept away with
those opal like eyes, a wisp of
your hair slightly out of place.

I am endeared by you, but
I know I shouldn't be
for to you, I should only be a subordinate.

You wander in my territory.
What prompts you to do so?
I have my work to do...
but I suddenly melt.

I realize you must
see how I'm doing here
in this strange new, place,
but you know I'm okay.

You sweep me away with
a confident stance, a figure of youth
and a firm sense of control.

I can't help but notice you, yet
I wish I could stop looking
because I should only be a subordinate.

Then one day, I notice.
I see you remember me
from somewhere...
but where?

Then I do remember that we
crossed paths a long time ago,
but you were different,
not the man that stands before me.

Now you sweep me away with
a more prominent face, not hidden
behind thin wire frames.

When you look at me, you address me
in a calm, collected way, yet I see
it differently, wishing not to be a subordinate.

Damn my fate, my luck!
I wind up with the prettiest boss.
That man...you...
too attractive for me.

I can't decide to stay, of if
I'd be better off somewhere else,
for my unnatural lust for you.......
it will drive me insane.

You have swept me away with
everything about you, an infectious
personality you appear to possess.

I arrive in your territory at the most unusual time,
as I find you have suddenly cleared my mental clouts,
quite a favor to make for a subordinate.

You make me laugh like I haven't in years,
but why do you have to be here,
in a position in which
you rule over me?

I wish I didn't feel this way, that
my mind could ignore your allure.
Lord, forgive me for lusting after you,
as I have sinned.

I am swept away by you, the person
that saved my ass, but not, I sadly say,
my sanity, which still hangs in the balance.

You've sparked in me a desire to be more,
something else, to rise from this position,
so I am no longer your subordinate.
