Admire From Afar

I admire from afar

Your charm and your grace

Only from afar, I will admire

For we have not shared but two words

I do not know you and you do not know I

Though I feel like I know you in some indescribable way

A way in which is unspoken

A way in only admirers may know

It will go no further than admiring

But, sometimes I like to dream

Dream that one day, we should meet

Dream that one day, I may admire

Not from afar but up close

Not only admire the beauty I see

But the faults I know you have

I want to admire all of you

But that is only a dream

So, for now

I will admire from afar

I will see what I see

And dream what I dream
