Your lips are shut, betraying not a word, <br />But what beckoned were sparkles from your eyes, <br />This stranger, thus encouraged did afford, <br />To come cubits nearer, yet soonest dies; <br />For thousand suns brighten your lovely face, <br />Such sight to see a galaxy away, <br />That when you ventured closer to my space, <br />You were best seen through shades of darkest gray; <br />Just how such dream did flourish as it might, <br />Though wrought in ciphers, but of sheer disguise, <br />Yet mysterious to mind of no insight, <br />And often left to fate of sad demise; <br />....By cowards who died many times before, <br />....Until finally knocking at your door.<br /><br />Reyvrex Questor Reyes<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/love-sonnet-39-your-lips-are-shut-betraying-not-a-word/
