beautiful lie.

A Poem by Lyn Cree

he has the smile of an angel ; with eyes deeper than the ocean
and his body language speaks to me ; like the spanish of a puerto rican
i breathe in his scent ; as if it were my only way of breathing
and i'd forever be with him ; like it was my only eay of being

with the laugh that can light up rooms ; he makes me smile
and with hugs tighter than my jeans ; he keeps me safe for a while
i lay there with him ; holding onto him tightly
staring straight into his eyes ; as they shine so brightly

he has the smile of an angel ; and eyes deeper than the ocean
and words that make it seem ; like life moves in slow motion
and with his angelic smile ; and oceanic eyes
his lips say he loves me ; but his lips only tell lies.
