Sense Sonnet - Acher

 My Unrequited Love

High school in Park Ridge, Illinois,

She was quite a popular girl.

I was an unpopular boy.

In crowds I'd see her golden curl,

And hear her laughing deep and loud.

I had to love her from afar,

Way out from her and her in crowd.

She was an unreachable star.

When we both graduated, I

Got brave and asked her for a date.

"No" was her no nonsense reply.

I just was not a winning mate.

So off to Bill, Hillary went,

Cuz I'd never be President.
