I was blown away
by her package,
she spoke four languages
with perfect diction,
read nonfiction books
& had a mind like
a nuclear physicist.

Her pretty looks were
just icing on the cake
& I was hoping she'd take
a little look at me,
but she just flew
right on by me,
it blew me away,
I never even got a chance.

Now,
I'm studying fusion,
brushing up on current events
& learning Russian
as a backup plan,
and to alleviate
my confusion.
