What lies beneath the surface smile? <br />which you display to everyone? <br />The mask you wear to be in style. <br />What lies beneath is yours alone. <br /> <br />Does it indicate interest? <br />What lies beneath the surface smile? <br />And will I perhaps pass the test <br />enjoy your company for a while. <br /> <br />Is it a sign of practiced guile? <br />or simple act of self defence. <br />What lies beneath the surface smile? <br />Must I rely on my sixth sense? <br /> <br />My need to know grows more intense <br />I am prepared to wait awhile <br />to try and gain your confidence. <br />What lies beneath the surface smile? <br /> <br /> <br />(poeticpiers/20/07/2007)<br /><br />ivor or ivor.e hogg<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/initial-attraction/
