The Way You Look at Me...

The way you look at me,
Frightens me, it’s not your fear but your desire.
The way your eyes droop,
Enchants me, it’s not your slumber but your dream.
The way you blush,
Caresses me, it’s not your rosy face but your charming grace.
The way you play with your locks,
Beguiles me, it’s not your unworldliness but your elegance.
The way you talk,
Soothes me, it’s not your myriad sense but your innocence.
The way you hop,
Enthuses me, it’s not your vigor but your child like pleasure.
The way you smile,
Maddens me, it’s not your gaiety but your ethereal beauty.
And the way I look into your eyes,
Bewilders you, it’s not my malice but my silent voice.

nice flow in the emotions...cant say the same with some of the words you used, for example 'HOP'..kind of jumps at one and makes it a awkward poem when it carries so much of rhythmic beauty within itself...i see you have been observing women(or a particular woman?) quite closely! cheerios for bringing life to the reality of the existence of a woman;for most of mundane life is so dead.
Cheers

@poetess
thx .. for ur appreciation..
and ya.. about hop.. u hv to understand my way of writing.. I usually write with flow.. and sth like hop. means playfully jump..
which went perfectly with .. the mood of the poem.. and also what I wanted to convey thru the poem..

ok..with each poem i read, i cant resist commenting..

if you ever come across this comment, and are interested in poetry, you can have a look at some i wrote, the initial ones being better(later ones are declined in grace,i've lost my touch).
