Her round brown eyes, 
jet black hair, soft cheeks,
her thin pink lips,
here is a perfect woman…
He offered her acquaintance,
she accepted with a caramelized smile.
They exchanged numbers, shook hands,
he felt the surge of electricity.
She offered him friendship,
he accepted with silence flattery.
They ate dinner together, walked in the park –
she felt the promise of security.
He offered her love
…
she answered with hesitation.
“I have a family,” she said.
“Why didn’t you tell?!”
A pause…
A very long pause…
“You didn’t ask…”
