A beautiful object,

Something to possess

And obsess over.

A silent prayer,

An unknown wish-

To have this person.

To have this kinship,

If only in the mind.

The physical is a mere formality

For the woman,

To have such a closeness

Is the aim.

An amusing thing,

Social smiles that entertains.

The fallacy to dazzle and

Shimmer in the spotlight

For everyone-

But mostly for me.

Pour all the disappointment

Into a shy cavern.

The emotional is a mere formality

For the man,

To have such a closeness

Is the aim.

An imaginary love in the mind of a friend;

The betrayal of companionship with the woman and the man.
