Smile For Me

Control me with your smiles, Small and discreet to broad and bold, Each one melts me... As I mold myself back together, With thoughts of us, You show me a smile of encouragement, Building ego and confidence, Until I am overflowing with such, You grin with sarcasm, And with the lift of your cheeks, You bring me back down, I wasn't ready for the vulnerability, But I embrace the sweet pain, Slowly I familiarize each smile, Recognizing the joy from the pain, Or so I assume, With control you seize me, Taking advantage of my weakness, Your smile... Slaving me, rather than appreciating, But as men do I adapt, Love struck before, I sell you the best dream, From the happiest nightmare, And you and me, Turns to me and you, And all I can do is smile.
