He smiles but the corners of his lips twitch
He speaks politely but his voice quivers
He speaks to you honestly but is unable to meet your eye

Is this someone you want to speak to?
Is this someone you want to know?
Is this someone you feel comfortable around?

He sees you losing interest
He sees you check your watch
He sees he is not enough to hold you interest

You make up some excuses
You have somewhere to be
You need to get out of here before he's appealing

He says farewell graciously
He knows why you leave
He sees what you feel inside and respects your decision

Why did he think he was good enough
Why did he approach me
Why did he think he was worthy to be with someone like me?

He sits alone in the corner
He sees everything
He drinks his drink and ponders upon his failings
