About This Poem

Implicit Consent 

.



                          I'll be the last to see your guise
                          a reason to love and be wise
                          slow on the uptake... slow
                          I'll ignore excuses, delays
                          your lost smile and your silent gaze
                          I'll never know, never know




Obviously fictitious! : )

    Are women really that mysterious Ruben? I agree we are hard to know at times because what we say may not be what we mean. Tough situation to deal with.

    Nawww I don't believe it ..it's rea [lI'll be the last to see your guise/ without questions you've improvised/ my time will pass in years too slow/ Was it your smile, those delays and excuses, I'll never know your silent gaze/ I'll never know, never know....
