Smiling- It's a Happy Thing
Smiling.
A lark in my heart singing.
A melody of morning beauty
The chirping attracted- What?
A contagious laughter.
A building mutual trust.
A sense of belonging.
My heartbeats-
rhythm quick yet steady,
I danced with no one noticing.
Curse words and in-mind echoes,
Off they disappeared-
Vanished like sunlit mist.
Smiling,
Lips in a real wide twist,
White teeth showing,
It's a happy thing.
Smiling.
The nights, once ruled by bad dreams,
but pain doesn't last forever still.
Daybreak brings hope, so beautiful,
The whole world now seems enthralling
Without you a burning devastation;
With you a marshmallow factory.
I heard chuckles everywhere
And convinced myself to worry less.
Long gone was any anxiety,
Long left the thieves of bliss.
No more words can describe it-
The gush of simple joy
Deep down in the nerves and veins.
This is not forever-
But now, down this trail.
It's a happy thing.
