Don't

By: Rebecca Walkins Randle

Don't caress me with your smile,
don't embrace me with your eyes.
Keep your charm to yourself,
I can see through your disguise.

Don't you think I realize
she still occupies your heart?
And that you merely wanted
to cast me in HER part?

I feel no pity for you-- so,
don't sigh in glum despair.
'cause you brought me to love's doorstep, then...
just left me standing there.
