DISGUISED

Behind that stubborn lock of hair,
Behind mischievous eyes,
Behind that carefree innocence
A man in making lies.
*
Behind his childish buoyancy,
Behind that warming smile,
An adult waits to be revealed
In just a little while.
*
Be slow to speak, my lips! My hands,
be careful what you do!
The kind of person he will be
Depends so much on you.
*
- B.L. M.
