Oh, sorry, I didn't mean actually you, but the you of the poem.

So I am on the right track. I did see it was about a relationship. So may I ask, "you reflect" in other words means the partner's reaction or response to your seriousness? Partner responds with something the opposite of serious: a smile, fluffy words, and brings up a teddy as part of an attempt to loosen you up? Or perhaps partner is just pleasantly surprised about your serious intent on some love. If any of that is true, perhaps:

you reflect my attempts to be solid< reflect = react to? or a more visual wording
and my thin lips with a startled smile < need some punctuation in here to get the point.
to reply a collection of fluffy words; < not sure what "to" is doing here. the message is all jumped with padding words and odd punctuation
a fitting sentence < sentence = expression?
for indurating ideas. 
then you come up < then you pull up? or grab?
with a velvety scarf or a pink teddy bear
and plush me down. < onto the bed? lol

That's about all I can offer this abstractness !  Tongue Unless I knew more of your intentions, then I could offer more.

it´s not concretely about me (at least not in the way i put it here, as if in a relationship). you´re on the right track, though i was not so much thinking of warm and playful.
i´m not happy with "solid (and no, i didn´t mean emotionally solid). had "serious" in the first version but it sounded too bland.
