If faces were an open book <br />Telling the truth in there, <br />How like a read all actions be, <br />Deceived not e`en a child. <br /> <br />But face has so many manners <br />Telling rarely the truth. <br />At times the eye can`t see <br />What`s so concealed in there; <br /> <br />Much with the woman so, <br />For beauty hides the heart.<br /><br />Luis Estable<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/if-faces/
