I find myself smiling in the saddest of times
And when I'm in trouble a grin will cross my mind
A tear of sadness followed by a smirk of delight
Allows me to sleep through the night
My life isn't perfect
I've fallen a time or two
But everytime I've fallen, a smile pulls me through
Though nightmares bite
And fear comes with a fight
My smiles always willing to get me through the pain
With my smile, there's always something to gain
A smiles from the soul
Laughing, playing, and nipping at the whole
My smile believes in beauty
And gets me through the pain
It says dreams can come true 
And when you've lost your smile, there's enough of mine for you

I got the nickname Smiles at camp this past year, which got me wondering why I smile so much. I realized that my smile holds my dreams, and every essence of me. My smile has a purpose. I hope that people will realize the beauty behind their smiles too when they read this. A smile is the most powerful thing a person can have. It can never be taken away!
