Acceptance
/She smelled something unusual in him
He could never escape her scrutiny
Since he was little
The apparel he liked
The peers he hung out with
The calls she overheard
All made her wonder
Still she hoped
Her suspicion was wrong
Then came the moment
He confessed and asked her
If she would come to his wedding
Dazed and disappointed
She gave him no answer
Yet on that day she did appear
