Facial expression
AFRICAN POEM BY NWACHUKWU VICTOR
FACIAL EXPRESSIONS
A picture drawn in your complexion,
Tells alot about your expression,
It hides in your beauty,
And makes it hard to tell if one is guilty,
The illustration shown through the eyes,
Decieves the fools, and is seen by the wise
It's sometimes easy to know the truth from the lies
But sometimes it's hard to realize
The eyes of Deception
And the words of Redemption
This two Things clash
And creates a splash
In the battle between feelings and emotions
And sometimes it brings about the astmosphere of commotion
Facial expressions is used as a tool
To know who is who
But sometimes mocks the fools
It's like telling a story without a word
And create a version of our world
Deception, lies, truth, feelings and emotions
All this hides behind the Facial expression
It is like a mask we wear to play our part
Or a character we Imitate to act
Many people judge through the cover of books
And believe deeply in the looks
Even the weather decieves with it's mysterious nature
Sometimes it's funny, sometimes it's playful and mature
The real truth is hidden behind those smiles
And the fack happiness that will last for some whiles
Being reminded of the truth by the breeze
But still hinding under the trees
Living in two worlds
One for the eyes, the other for the words
Living through our Imagination
A life according to our beautification
Some hide it because of their foes
Living a life on the low
