In those eyes, tears do brim

All a-quiver are your lips

I've done wrong again

The latest of many slips

I rack my brains for reasons

Did I omit my morning kiss?

Or fail to hail your daily bloom?

What critical need did I miss?

As the baby's due next month

I'm watching my p's and q's

Skating on thin eggshells

Pandering to your mute clues

Then it dawn...

I never used to look at people's faces

My body language was out of kilter

Then I met you and saw the world

Through a life-changing filter

The thing about you that gets me

Is the quiver of merciful lips

On a mouth adorning the face 

That leaves my heart in bits

The quiver of fond lips cant be beaten

It makes my soul leap and rhyme

Should yours ever stop quive...

On my lips

I want pressed

The lips of another

misunderstood creature
