Afraid You Lie

I'm afraid you lie,
behind those soft smiles,
beneath words that promise everything
yet deliver nothing.

Your gaze lingers too long,
your touch is too light,
like the wind brushing past
just before a storm.

I pretend I don’t notice,
but I do,
because love doesn’t tremble like this—
unless there’s something to hide
