I Stare and I Don’t Care

i stare at him from across the gym, from my swishy girly barely-breaking-a-sweat low-impact machine. i watch as he lifts and flexes and curls.

he’s so handsome. chiseled. tan. i can’t help but stare.

and i don’t care.

i stare as he walks between sets. i don’t care that he notices i’m staring.

i stare as he pulls his white earphones out again and again to respond politely to her, then quickly returns his attention to his music.

and i don’t care.

i don’t care that she speaks to him.

i don’t care, because what she doesn’t know is that i will be the one that stares into his baby blue eyes before falling asleep tonight.

    That post was worth a repeat. When I was younger I could get away with staring at a beautiful women. Now I’d get locked up for being a dirty old man. :)
