Borrowed Smile

A sweet smile,

with an interrupting gaze. 

Leave me to drown,

in this beautiful haze.

My hands start to jitter,

a shiver shakes my back.

Her eyes seem to glitter,

My heart's been attacked.

If only I were brave,

I would say something witty.

Instead I retreat into my cave,

fearing people so pretty.

Although I've let this moment pass,

I still feel rather content.

Though her smile will not last,

I know that it's only been lent.

Great poem. It might be scary, but if a girl smiles at you it's usually for a reason.

So sweet! I love this poem! Well done Kirk. I don't think you need fear if she's smiling at you. :)
