Don't Blink, ...a poem from 2009



http://voices.yahoo.com/dont-blink-3628617.html?cat=41



Don't Blink
Your Heart is Showing...


I'll make you think.
I'll make you cry.
Don't blink.
You know it's no lie.



Uncomfortable you may be.
Certain your secrets I see.



Accusing you'll say I offend.
Amusingly I'll still be your friend.



Walking on eggshells you'll turn away.
Laughing I'll know you'll pray.



Praying your secrets not found.
Hoping no one's looking around.



Walking away, I'll end.
Because you were my friend.



Friends don't shun.
Words can't be undone.



Don't blink.
I know what you think.



I've seen your lies.
You've heard the alligator's cry...



Comfort yourself, as you state I have lied.
Comfort yourself, as a friends trust has died.




My friend, who is it?
Who is it that you wish to impress, with your wit?



Words written can be erased.
Words remembered will encase.



Don't worry my friend.
These words mean nothing at all in the end.



Words are cheap.
I love you's will make you weep.



A friend till the end.
A heart broken will mend.



Now my friend look at the words on the page.
Words dancing upon a stage.



Take my words to heart.
We'll depart.



But I promise you I'll make you think. I'll make you cry.
Don't blink, because you know to you I'll not lie.



Laughing now, I'll go away.
It's time for you to pray.



Pray because you know my words are true.
Pray because one day it will be you who stands in my rue...



Tomorrows gone, today is spent.
And yesterday was only for a time lent.



Depart in peace my friend.
For truly this is the end.
