How do I find my smile again?
The one that starts from deep within and radiates beyond the shape of my mouth
How do I find the smile that made me tingle inside?
Not the fake one that I wear to cover the tears I hide
That amazing smile that I used to know
The one that gave me that special glow
The smile that supersedes minutes of great sex
The smile that carries from one moment to the next
The smile so genuine and sweet that reminded me there is no foe I could not beat
How do I find my smile again?
Buried under tears distracted by my fears
The smile that says there is nothing I can’t do
Empowering my strength to deal with life’s zoo
Didn’t know that I let it go until it was gone
If I don’t know how it was lost I’m not sure how to grab it back
Maybe it will return if I wait a while.
Can someone help me find my smile?
