Can’t Afford You

Knowing I can’t afford you

Always stay at a distance

Admiring through the case

Wondering for an instance

But no one will help me

Because I don’t look the part

All I get is a “May I help you”

Knowing I can’t afford you

Even if it feels like

No one is caring for you

And you are only “Ok”

On that sparkling display

Yet the price for entry

It is well beyond me

Knowing I can’t afford you

Creates this uneasiness

Walking by everyday

Almost bowing down

To your highness

Staring with a sigh

All I can do is wave bye

Knowing I can’t afford you

I let this hesitancy

Build within me

Never saying what’s needed

Just keeping it all buried

This truth won’t set me free

You are my destiny
