Naked Smile
Always hopeful in dreams
You can't ask
You can't scream
Free floating thought
Driven by a lesson
Carelessly taught
Dawn brightens another day
What have you learned
What can I say
Crinkled paper haunts the night
Causing shadows
Fear of light
Never show a naked smile
It only stays
A short while
