Private Pilot

Love is Blind …. I only wish it was.Because then I wouldn’t see what I can never haveThey say when you know, you know.What a load of nonsenseBecause the only thing I know is …. he’s off limits.Workplace relationships are inappropriate and seedyEvery morning I step onto his plane.Every morning he smiles and says a polite hello.I give him a controlled nod, acknowledging him as I pass, pretending not to notice him.But I can feel his eyes undress me as I walk past. And if I’m being honest, they do a lot more.If his gaze gives me tingles, I dread to think what an actual touch could do.Maybe I’m imagining the entire thing. Daydreaming the ultimate fantasy.Because he’s my Private PilotAnd I’m just his smitten boss
