Let Down Your Hair

I saw a girl today,
staring at me through the attic window
of a house her grandparents must own.
Her eyes sapphires piercing the window grime.
I doubt she is interested in me,
and probably just enjoys the way the sun warms her cheek
when she presses it against the double-paned glass.
I saw her again at dusk,
brushing her long blond hair.
I thought about Rapunzel.
