Trust and Openness
You meet a person
She casts a suspicious glance,
A guarded posture.
And another,
His furtive glance,
Filled with distrust.
You look at a mirror,
Perhaps it’s me,
Not them.
Perhaps if I smiled
With my eyes
As with my lips.
Projecting kindness and caring
Reflects back
Fading the suspicion and distrust.
