A Smile That Dares Not To Dissappear
I hide behind a smile day by day
No way can I leave it away it has to stay
A fear of fear itself means I will descend
The smile helps my being mend from torturous times
Crimes against the most human kindness
To fear to let ones wall down
It protects like an invisible blanket
Its security I hold on like a baby in arms
Noone can see my wondering in me
A wildness that is shown shades the innocences
Sometimes I scream inside my mind
As it never stands down
Like a film that has no ending
I defend the right with all my fight to hide inside
A lie I tell myself I am alright when really thats not right
So many sides to one being some need freeing
To escape my thoughts would be desire itself
Instead I climb the wall my own walls
Words can not be taken back even though the bricks may fall
The hurt can only be forgiven when its jury has delivered
A story I will one day tell
Its pages will set the scene
Of how I feared the anger in me
Of a smile that dare not dissappear
As then I will be truely be in all despair
