Dear Diary,
I seem so far away now,
but I keep a watchful eye.
Sit back and let me tell you
of the boy more beautiful than I.

Hair I've always found attractive,
and eyes that kill too.
Pools of icy water
I struggle to get close to.

Eyeliner serves as a gate or dam
I can't quite seem to get through.
My ignored glances and smiles
are the boomerang I threw.

He smiled at me today,
after giving me the eye.
That's all I really know
of the boy more beautiful than I.

I thought for sure I'd die.
It was quite a sight.
I didn't know whether to call a doctor
or kiss him on the site.

Couldn't wait to tell someone,
and it was only 12:04.
Lunch--my social time--
is what I'm waiting for.

I kept waiting and finally,
the big hand hit the eight.
I got up with purse in hand,
and, forgetting him, went and ate.

Anyway, I forgot about it--thanks to hunger,
but still, his image rested in my eye.
That was the tale of flaky me and
of the boy more beautiful than I.
