Subtext

 

Your words do not match the tune. 

An offbeat smile on the face. 

How long can you be immune,

and let the soul not surface?

Why do you so camouflage,

and withdraw into your shell?

For I know you by and large,

and I am under your spell. 

Memories throb and riot -

even though you are quiet.
