Secrets Within Smiles

Secrets Within Smiles

A Poem by Mackenzie R. Friday

Secrets within smiles,
Destruction often comes with soft gestures
Made by porcelain hands wrapped
Tightly in white lace.

 

Momentary silence,
Those short breathes of something
Living all around you that does
Not want to be heard.

 

Beautiful simplicity,
Gods and words dictate wishful minds
But in the end we all have that
Very same thought.

 

Endless empty words,
Keeping quiet in the presence of reality
And learning that each tomorrow
Finds us further than today.

 

Deceptive prospects,
Trust no future that is seen as constant
For the drum beats inside us
Grow weaker and weaker.

 

Secrets within smiles,
Smiling in the face of destruction that
Accompanies beauty and life
That comes with secrets.

Don't let a smile fool ya - some say, I believe it! Within a smile - hidden devastation. Smooth and very descriptive poem.
