A smile

just an old poem i wrote awhile ago

A smile is not always what it seems

A smile can open windows to our dreams

It can also open windows to our past

And to the pain that will forever last

 

It can warm your heart

It can warm your soul

But deep in the eyes

The truth is shown

 

A smile can feed our fear

It can feed our doubt

When the smile is hard to figure out

 

Is it a smile of happiness?

Or a smile of deceit

Do you really know the truth

That is living underneath

 

Do they have thoughts of the standing gun

As each of you fall one by one

Or is it thought of love and cheer

Did you bring their happiness near

 

My smile comes in many forms

But no fear is to be made

Because my smile is filled

With happiness these days :)
