Painted smile

by kevin Boundy AKA the ghost   Feb 13, 2008


You try to blind me to the facts
But when I respond I'm "hostile"
You think you have me going
But I see right past that painted smile

You switch moods
Just to keep me guessing
I've seen this act and done this dance
But why are you still suppressing

I like you because you shine bright
In the darkest of places
And you keep me wishing that
I fall into your good graces

You test me with smile
And taunt me with your eyes
You try to make me think
You're the devil in disguise

But I see right through you
Because i know your style
I can read your mind like an open book
I see right past that painted smile

    Wow, Okay, First of all; This poem almost brought some tears to my eyes. You're an EXCELLET writer. & I love the way you can peice things together. & Last, You have a good style if writing, I just noticed that we use the same Format, haha. It's pretty common though I guess. By Format I mean: Where we put 4 lines and then space it out. (:
    Anyways, excellent job 5/5 ! -Amirah.
