A Face Can Fool One’s Feelings Inside

Poetry From The Heart By Barbara Kasey Smith’s Corner:

If I give you my heart
will you handle it with care
it’s suffered shocks and many despairs.
Scars cover its surface
no-one can see
engraved by life’s grind and speed.

I’ve tried to erase them
but they never fade
leaving symbols of life’s
trials and tribulations every day.
If you’ll offer a hug to boost my ego
it’ll cure wrongs not letting go.

A face never displays
what a soul feels inside
a person desires others to see gifts of pride.
Never judge a person by smiles on their face
sum it up as a normal…part of the human race.

If someone offers you their heart
it could be damaged and ripped apart.
Don’t buy into thumps and quivers within
a soul is hard to repair and bring to a mend.
Don’t allow the heart to make your choice
it could cause you to end up without having a voice.
