I can't stop looking at you
when you pass, I can't turn away
I don't know why
you're just like everyone else
right?
you have hands, and feet
eyes and ears
like anyone else
and yet, you are different
I can't help but study your walk
deliberate. confident. comfortable
each step has a purpose
you always know where you are going.
and when you speak to me
I have to notice the lines on your face
the way your lips create that sharp smile
but why?
why can't I look away.
why must I notice
maybe I'm trying to see why you are different
why you are the key to my happiness
why I can't look away
