piece by Piece

Clenched words in between clenched teeth;
amiable face, ohh beautiful eyes...
I
think
we've
met
before!
Have we?
No..
but that shouldn't stop us..
from finishing what we started.
clenched words in between clenched teeth.
amiable face, with beautiful eyes..
dark, dark hair, darker than the midnight skies.
beauty doesn't make up for what I have to say...
We've met before but..
That shouldn't stop us.

  1. "beauty doesn't make up for what I have to say" - that is a killer line. And I love the way it continues this tension you build up between looking and (not) talking, with the "clenched words" opposed to the very open description that happens in the lines that follow. Wonderful.
