Smile
September 15, 2016
A smile is warm and quick
like the thump of a beating hart it can appear
a couple times a second,
every minute,
once in a life time,
or never again;
A smile is a rittle of endless meaning,
some use to mask their pain,
some to hide their tears,
and others to hide the lies they reap,
A smile speaks when words seize to hold their meaning,
weather it be lies,
tears,
or pain,
A silent smile speaks when words seize.
