When Your Heart Tells A Lie Poem by Bolami lawal

How do i know that you tell a lie,
if your eyes didn't say a word?
you say one thing;
but your eyes says another.

In your eyes i hear screams,
unheard volumes of mystery
and when my gaze rest on yours,
it was for a pupose.

I search for clues
where they can't be hidden,
between your heart and your eyes
i see the path of truth;
for when your heart tells a lie,
i know its impossible
for your eyes to conceal....
