Blushing of one’s own naiveties

Blushing of one’s own naiveties,
being unable to talk
of plans, hopes
making no excuses if words
are never
light enough.
Perhaps it’s an illness,
modesty,
or on the contrary arrogance,
social irreverence,
staying outside,
speaking slowly,
feeling too hard,
smiling often, like to the children
even
trust someone
