Your Words

“Your Words”.

     Your trembling lips.
     My rusting smile.
     your mouth moves,
     your words beguile.
     Tears in your words
     hiding your smile.
     your laughter
     your sneer.
     Diamonds in your eyes. 
     You Can’t look up.
     You can’t look down.
     You look at me.
     don’t. my words freeze.
     don’t focus on me!
     Please look around.
     trembling lips
     Rusting heart.
     Diamonds in your eyes.

     Your smile deceives. 
     My words beguile.
     Your trembling lips.
     My rusted smile.
     I play the fool,
     You play the clown,
     I'm touching her,
     when you’re not around.
     old, footsteps in the snow.
     Trembling lips.
     Diamonds in your eyes.
     My rusted smile hides, my desire.
     My smile deceives. 
     Your words beguile.
     Our trembling lips, 
     Our rusted smile's..
     and I just die!
     Diamonds in your eyes.

Lips tremble and smiles deceive, while words beguile. There's a mixture of emotions within. Your thoughts caress softly around me. ~ Brandy

Thanks for the comment Brandy. I only started writing poetry when covid 19 hit.. I wrote as a joke, it's strange when people like my poetry or even read it. I really don't know what I'm doing.. This poem just wrote its self in 15 minutes, my Muse made me write it. Thanks again.. LF.B
