Poker-faced

Photo by Owtana

Can’t quite tell

If that’s a smile or a frown.

It’s utter hell

Trying to break it down.

Hard to read.

Are you happy or sad?

Sowing seeds

of doubt is bad.

Just be frank.

Are you telling a lie?

Your EQ sank.

Don’t you laugh, don’t you cry?

Why the poker-face?

What do you hide?

Do you just want space?

Or don’t let any inside?

It’s cool if you want

To be an enigma.

But please just be blunt

Is it fear of a stigma?

It’s OK to feel,

Let your emotions run.

Just keep it real,

Only For The One.
