She Smiled

And She Smiled
Smiled as he lied straight to her face
Told her things memory will not erase
Elevated her heart to a different place
All just to meet with what's hidden underneath her lace

I can't believe She Smiled
Smiled everytime she caught him with other mates
Never regretting to have opened her sacred gates
All she did is make record of the different dates
And bit by bit served him her heart on a golden plate

Oh yes She Smiled
Smiled as day by day he constantly bruised her
And from the inside out he continued to destroy her
We all just watched and never tried to save her
For all we know, It's her smile that killed her...

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
