It's Something About the Way She Looks


Your face is a symphony- Does a man love it- Can he understand the meaning behind the way you stare up at him through lashes thick as curtains - Is he familiar with the way your hair falls onto his torso as you lull yourself asleep- Does he know you're undressing him with your eyes when he catches you lingering a moment to long- Has he noted the way your lips quiver when his are inches from yours- Can he spot the tints of pink that dance around the edges of your cheeks when he whispers in your ear- Has he noticed the way your ears burn at the sound of his voice calling your name- Is he aware of the reason your nose crinkles when he says he has to leave- Has he seen your jaw tighten the way it does when you’re looking for the right words but come up short- Does a man love it the way I used to?

I am 17 I live with my mom in Seattle, Wa. As long as I can remember poetry has been my way of coping with hard times in my life. I would love to hear your thoughts on my poems.
