A LOOK CAN WHISPER OR SHOUT ITS ARRIVAL Once spent there's no retreat or denial Be careful to show Emotions that grow Into notions that could threaten survival Direct not a frown with a stare Unless you just don't really care Your chances are slim And may be starting to dim The time could be right for a prayer.
