Smiling For Smart

SMILING FOR SMART Arrogance of your silence, stinking attitude Rotten breath from your mouth, saliva with virus Beauty painted in ugliness of your expression Your niceness is enveloped by naughtiness If you could only smile your inner beauty will shine out Unwelcoming gesture, mask of unfriendliness Madness of unsmiling attitude hider all goodness Kindness killed by unkindness of lack of positiveness Love covered in lust, expressing bad and longing for laughter Smiling uncovers your smartness in the presence of foolishness Rejection of friends, family and fame due to fakeness Smelling like a dog, biting the finger that feeds you All you will ever need is in you and people but your attitude Cacophony of bitterness clouds the benefits of smiles Smiling is for smart, smiling is strength, smiling is sweet for your soul Divided within, longing for the touch of comfort Lost touch with inner happiness, horrific to smile Blaming everybody for everything going wrong in him Blaming everyone for everything going ugly in her life Shake yourself; smile even when you are smelling inside, just smile Even when you are frustration, forsaken, forbidden, smile Even when you are in pain, pressure, persecution, smile anyway Even when you don’t like them, or don’t laugh with them, just smile Even if your lips have sores and it hurts to smile, yes-just smile Even if you are in sorrow just smile, smiling is sweet for the soul Smile speaks all languages and covers all fears and hurts, so smile
