Taboo??

It's time for me to go downstairs again.  I better go adjust my lipstick and put on some perfume.  You would think that being at work I should be concentrating on my daily duties, but I can't seem to concentrate on anything else but going to see you.  I race through the lobby trying to pretend like I have something important to do.  All the while I'm just trying to make you notice me.  I hear you adjust your throat, so I look over with just a quick little glance.  You smile...
I go behind the desk acting like I'm waiting for someone, but I'm actually waiting for YOU to say something to me.  Then you do...and all I can do is look into your big blue eyes.  They stand out so much more now that you've gotten contact lenses...They are like mirrors of the blue sky above that has just taken me into flight, kind of like the butterflies that are fluttering around in my stomach.
I can tell by the way you talk to me and the way you look at me that you feel the same way I do...
You asked me once if you could take me on a date...I said "maybe next week", even though I was thinking "okay..pick me up at 8".
It's 5:00pm now...I better get ready to go home...
I have to go see my boyfriend...doesn't your girlfriend come home from school tonite?
I guess I'll see you tomorrow...same place...same time..
