Tiny face

Such a tiny face much more than sleek protected edges   
A Soft smooth surface warm beneath your hand protected beyond bound pledges

Just more shapes within shapes and shortened signs and hidden phrases
Some of truth some of haste some of sinful secret praises 

Alluring and demanding of the mind that needs a race
it takes a hold and keeps a grip of the eye that heeds its trace 

A learned and teaching place which can show to be a  gift
A blessing  beneath fragility stopping distance that can drift

Pictures captured memories logged emotions kept in store 
much to tell and less to see; room to doubt the crave for more 

It takes the eyes admired with desire - there's others that wish to hold their stare
The Wish To hold the thought and be the thing that silently becomes an affair 

Behind that bright and well watched face there's no awareness and only calm 
No Way To know the weight it holds and portrays a feather upon a palm 

Perceived as smart and told as gold - completely unknowing of it's sin
Simply holding presence and some grace - unaware of its sure win

Behold the fixation upon the face as it sits and watches that tiny face 
An invisible bubble surrounds around and a light shines a message back thru space 

Response is sent and the "smart" phone told to abide a routine sway 
What's one to give or express or show to take the "smart"Phones prey 

Look upon the holding hands to see the eyes that not see you 
Hold there the blame and finger point - thats the one that needs the queue 

Such a tiny face can be just that and just what you perceive 
We each decide the view we find and what image we conceive 

How much hold within the grasp - of the hand that hides a silent fright
Does it stay the sway set before or does it halt the bind with might 

No one knows and the story unfolds will the strong redirect their sight 
Do the self controlled have the power to standalone from those pulled by fright

Such a tiny face that beholds such power and does it without aware 
Bittersweet the irony you see - as resolve reflects in the tiny faces glare
