kind eyes

kind eyes

A Poem by renaes reads
"

a heart break.

"
He slid his fingers through the loose hairs hovering over my cheekbone
His eyes seemed kind
My mother had told me not to trust a boy with such kind eyes
she told me i'd get lost in them
she was no closer to being wrong than i was to calling him mine
He slid his jacket over his shoulders pulling at the sleeves to straighten 
his strength seemed peaceful 
My father had warned me not to trust a boy with such strength
he told me i'd lose against him 
he was no further from being wrong than i was to calling him right 
He slid his hand across the steering wheel as we turned into my street
His lips seemed sweet
My best friend has told me not to trust a boy with such sweet lips
she told me i'd get lost in them 
she was no closer to being wrong that i was to feeling his sweet lips
He slid across me to reach for the door to let me out of his s****y car
His cologne seemed fresh 
My sister had warned me to not trust a boy with such cologne 
she told me i'd be weakened by it
she was no further from being wrong than i was to tasting his cologne 
His eyes were as kind as the stars shimmering down on each and every stranger
His strength was as peaceful as the water streaming down a water feature
His lips were as sweet as a candy treat after a day of hunger
And his cologne,
His cologne was as fresh as his body when they found him the next day.

I like the macabre tingle of this piece. I felt the jaws of the trap close on me in the last line. If I have any suggestion it would be to let the trap creak a little before you spring it, just a brush stroke or two of foreshadowing , a hint in a word choice or two.
But, awesome writing , especially in the thematic repetitions.
