What Secrets Do Your Eyes Hold?

A Poem

he thinks you’re a mystery,
some puzzle to solve in his free time,
because you hold all the cards
while you won’t even spare him a glance

but when I face you, you’re all smiles —
so keen to be friends, no matter what —
and I don’t trust those eyes of yours
because you’ve lied so much before
