Why should this be read, Other than the fact that he asked you? Under the rules of Common Courtesy, Look over the words. Determine whether praise is deserved. Yet there is no movement, Only concentration is present; Utter those silent signs of approval or denial. Gone are the shy days of the child; On this single occasion, he will become bold. Traveling across the paper, Offering nothing more than what he can give. Perfection is not expected, but Reputation is on the line. Odd, since when did that ever Matter to him anyway? Whether you say yes or no, Invite your eyes To continue scrolling, Hurriyng to the end. Moments come and go, but one Eternal problem stands: Are you paying attention? Read between the lines and answer my question

The Question
Why should this be read, Other than the fact that he asked you? Under the rules of Common Courtesy, Look over the words. Determine whether praise is deserved. Yet there is no movement, Only concentration is present; Utter those silent signs of approval or denial. Gone are the shy days of the child; On this single occasion, he will become bold. Traveling across the paper, Offering nothing more than what he can give. Perfection is not expected, but Reputation is on the line. Odd, since when did that ever Matter to him anyway? Whether you say yes or no, Invite your eyes To continue scrolling, Hurriyng to the end. Moments come and go, but one Eternal problem stands: Are you paying attention? Read between the lines and answer my question
Ladies, just a little thing I came up with, just in time for Prom season. I will always wonder what response I would have been given.
