Sitting still
As it itches
But Won’t scratch.
Burning to scream
Yet smiles
Wanting to leave
Yet stays
The lips won’t tell
Yet the eyes own the truth
Carried in the hearts
At that family table;
One of deception
Like a casting scene!

Wow!! Incredibly well written and powerful!! 💗
Thank-you Lisa. I enjoyed writing it as well.
Very good! There could be a long discussion on that one poem.
Thank-you Miss Deborah 😁. This particular poem came from a very long time of observing.
“The eyes know the truth.” As it is said, eyes are windows into the soul. Well said by you.
Absolutely. At least with me, I know one can tell my heart by marely looking in my eyes. Thank you Miss Elizabeth 💝
