how it has been
good or bad, a person can always depend
good or bad, a person can always depend
on a smile, to brighten the day;
a warm smile says pretty much anything
and people, well,
a person wants it to say.
like a defining moment, a smile shines brightly
especially when it's natural and comes from one's spirit
the place where it's impossible to pretend;
the space where one's flesh ends and their soul begins
a smile says, i am a frown turned upside down
like a defining moment, a smile shines brightly
especially when it's natural and comes from one's spirit
the place where it's impossible to pretend;
the space where one's flesh ends and their soul begins
a smile says, i am a frown turned upside down
which is definitely needed in this world gone backwards
where heartfelt laughter,
it has seemingly taken a backseat
and people, well,
they simply stare
as if they are afraid to be happy
or show how much they truly care
or show how much they truly care
while this is true,
for some reason, it doesn't appear to be the case with you.
this is what your smile says

Beautiful.
Loved it!! I need to apply it. I am not a smiler (if thats a word). Strangers will say to me on a regular, "smile baby girl, it can't be that bad"...lol..and really it's not bad at all. My relaxed face just looks evil I guess. lol
@ tia: same here. LOL. i might smile on the outside but it still wouldn't reveal the insides.
@ adrienne: thank you. i read your blog post today. you are something serious. LOL.
@ diane: thank you miss lady.

Nice one. How you be?
@ lindah: i should be asking you that question.
@ christina: thanks babygirl, happy that you felt the poem dedicated to you.. same here. i've always felt there was/is something very graceful and special about you. as you grow and grow i still feel the same way. don't be so quick to want to take the negative route...the positive route will get you at the place you're wanting to be, even quicker. love you with all my heart, bubblehead. (and stop writing like that!) lol.
