Drawing eyes 

from across the room 

they’re staring out of the paper 

but you are withdrawn 

from the faces looking on 

are you a spy 

or an artist drawing lines 



is there a hidden camera 

in your pen 

cos i'm having trouble avoiding 

the questions in your eyes 

if this is your disguise 

please stop trying to draw 

information out of me 



drawing eyes 

wide-open like 

the curtains to a play 

but i cannot stay 

in the audience 

feeling so withdrawn 

from the faces looking on 

to applaud for curtain call 



do you carry magnets 

in your pockets 

cos i'm having trouble 

resisting your gravity 

when you are near 

please stop drawing this out 

using your secret agent 

on me
