boring at the end



walking down the stairs towards a princess 
with my snowflake chiming
grand timing
like a debutant putting stuff
in her backpack
she looks up at me
as I descend
and her crown says
Happy Birthday
so I smile
happy birthday
I wonder if people think
where can I get that ringtone
when they hear my snowflake
but can't see it

I wonder how many ladies
I've exchanged smiles with
upon entering or exiting
the restroom

we almost look back at each other
me and the princess
but we don't
she continues on her 
birth way
slowly wondering
what's next
for how many more hours
will she receive friendly
glances and
text messages
