Quick Glances

There is two beautiful women

Sitting right next to me

On their laptops

Attempting to do work

I

Keep my headphones in

And try not to look at them

One of them is gorgeous

And I can’t help it

My eyes find her face

Almost

As if I don’t control them

Every time I see her

She gets prettier

Is this a trick?

Is it the beer?

No

It’s just her

And my eyes

Long to keep looking at her

I only manage quick glances though

And hope

She doesn't notice

If only I had balls

I’d find someway

To break the ice

And introduce myself

But no

I am too scared

Only brave enough

For quick glances.
