Looks Say Naught

Her gaze was as cavern black

so dark I could barely see

past those sockets.

It seemed hollow

cold,

echoing, unforgiving.

---

Her touch was as cubes of ice

sending bouts of shivers

down to my spine.

Transcending to me

vague,

chilly, and nothing.

---

Her smile was empty as a cup

that had lost all within

and its hope.

Her lips parted

forced,

small, and unfeeling.

---

Her heart was as ocean deep

going further than ever

to cherish her love.

Though none knew it,

hidden,

living, and pumping.
