I refuse
to turn half way to meet your eyes,
and that’s the side of me
you haven’t seen before.
I’m not the one
to offer compromises,
baby.
I watched you from afar
longer than I can remember,
and you never noticed,
how I learned your movements
by heart.
You’re predictable.
And that’s what makes you…
vulnerable.
I smile to false-convince you,
that my naivety is genuine,
but darling,
you just don’t know what I know.

Another brilliant piece – i can certainly ‘feel’ your work under my skin.
You,are wonderful. I love to read your work.
Thanks darling… How are you anyway?
Beautiful, Ms. Owl, and I love your creative title! Your talent is amazing..:)
Thank you darling..
“I smile to false-convince you,

I simply love starting my morning reading lines such as this! Brilliant, Ms. Owl, and words/emotions I know only too well.
I love & appreciate the honesty of your prose 🙂
just say it and he will knew what you know 😀
oooo, I don’t want to, haha.
Your words are excellent! and your vision to them bring a refreshing taste into the poetry community.
Thanks you! How is your poetry getting along?
You should read my newest poem. It’s about The darkside of Disneyland. You’ll never get to read anything like this. Only because people don’t want to read about Disneyland. Please read and comment. I’d like to hear your interpretation.
Heading there now.
You’re predictable.
And that’s what makes you…
vulnerable.
I love how you write 🙂
Thank you. Sometimes the muse is kind to me.
You’re predictable and that’s what makes you vulnerable. Well, the owl is a bird of prey isn’t she? 🙂
Yes 🙂 bird of prey indeed 😉
Amazing write as always my friend!
This is a good poem!
Oh Chatty, you’re not stalking me are you? 😉
Sorry I have been so absent lately! But I am here! Hope all is well! 🙂
Miss Owl, the mystery wraps a new strand of black lace around my eyes of understanding by the day. Deeper into the maze I go! 😉 Beautifully written.
The wily ways of women will ever be a mystery to us mere males and a knowing glance from a woman, especially a wife or girlfriend, will stop most men in their tracks, unless they’re drunk or plain stupid 🙂
Why do i sense a great deal of sarcasm here? 😛
No Ma’am, I’m certainly not being sarcastic, merely pointing out the power women have over men, especially the men who really care for them 🙂
But then again you don’t know what they know either! We take comfort in thinking we have everything all figured but that’s the moment when we realise that we never even knew the half of it! Thinking someone is predictable also makes us predictable as well.
It’s like the hunter becomes a prey!
Brilliant!!! Well said my dear!
Don’t ever let anyone tell you that you’re not the smartest person in the room. Unless of course that person is me 😉 hehe!
So the man on the television is telling me; just how white my shirts should be. I wonder if that’s what you mean by predictable. You are right, no one could know what you know. Wait! Are we still talking about shirts?
I dont like shirts white, i just dye them blue and draw stripes on them. So lets not listen to the man in the tv 😉
you are amazing – your sense of self is so powerful
Thank you. What a flattering compliment.
Very interesting title 🙂
Lovely piece as usual owly.
❤
Does the title sound like an advertisement for washing powder?
Hahaha no not at all. Like a smile 🙂 or a lie 🙂
Lovely, I agree he does not know even the half of it:D
He he 🙂 yes.
What you know? 🙂
Everything 😛
I doubt 😉
Prove me wrong.
You’re predictable.
And that’s what makes you…
vulnerable.</i.
Nice line.
I wouldn't be taken in by predictability though….some of the most predictable people I know have astonished me by doing something rash, for better or worse.
Love the title too.
I am surrounded by very predictable “predictable people”. *sigh*
lovely
Thanks. Long time no see.
i was shocked to see you again..haha..the red roses gone.. your palms are hiding your faces now..the picture.
such an interesting title, lovely lady. There seems a great deal you are leaving me to know as well. It’s nice having the upper hand..that’s what I read in this – but pfft I shall probably be wrong again lol x
You are definitely not wrong!!!!! And oh my, isnt it late where you are? People are having sleep problems more than i thought, haha.
no sweet it is 6:30pm Sunday night here 🙂 and phew lol
Oh, you are on the opposite side of the world than i thought!
Yes’m Australia 🙂
