He Resembles Clark Kent. A Poem

I feel for him
But it's been
So far light hearted
We have had some
Deep conversations
About taking care
Of our parents.
In my case
A past endeavor
In his,
Still on going.

He has shared
Some insecurities with me
He is not Superman
Although I joke
That with his glasses
He resembles Clark Kent.
Truly, he
And Christopher Reeves
Could have been related.

I enjoy our banter
I enjoy the glimpses
Of his life he gives
But still
I think he could be
A player
With many women
Like me stacked up
Waiting for a meet
That might never happen.
Stringing us all along.

The time that passes
I will be real
And kind
And affectionate
For if the part
Of his life
About being a caretaker
Is the truth
I would be heartless
To withhold
My compassion.
It's how I would want
To be treated
In similar circumstances.

I think of how
Our lives could mesh
How I could easily
Fall in love
Spend the rest
Of my life with him.
Looking at his face
Like Christopher Reeves
Like Clark Kent.
Trying to make him happy
In the best way I can.

I think of that
And then I pull back.
Knowing it takes
Two to tango
I don't know his heart
Where I am concerned.
Like I said before
He could have many women
He could be a player
I could be just one
That he chats with
We could all provide
Empathy and compassion
And at other times
Stimulation.
I am a fool
To become so invested
Without any reciprocation.
Independently Romantic Sounds Better Than Lonely

 I particularly liked the 5th stanza my lady
- carries an internal rhythm into its repetitions
