I've never given you a poem, never given you a rose Never given you anything to make you really know How your beauty shows and sings from the inside out And how it still resonates even when you're not about With my mouth I'll shout "it brings me joyful tears" And how it silenced even my heart's deepest fears No surprise, I find released peace from your smile Reconciled, consoled beneath its hold like a child Brightness in your eyes, exuberance from your smile Amplified, intensified, some of the words I could find Yet none can describe a beauty so sublime A smile I realize frees me from emotional demise A smile that brings bliss to troubled minds A smile that makes me smile all the time Every moment with her now worthwhile A smile that heightens my life beyond the skies A smile that no earthly being could ever deny Even as they try, to your smile hearts subside Beauty from your eyes, a sweet kiss from your lips With your smile no one could resist this gift But now I feel a shift, it's not what I remember For your smile has parted ways with your beautiful face Maybe misplaced, even worse replaced Maybe a mishap, could be it's kidnapped No smile to bring this ugly world beauty and grace No trace, Not a place, no where to be found Unknown to my presence, a smile now upside down Not a sound, not a feel, not even in your eyes do I see Your smile lost beneath a sea of saddened unfamiliarity Could it be, has your smile been taken away from me? Sealed within the hardened walls of a caged heart Buried under the fiery depths of haunted memories It melts away 'til there is nothing left I cry for I can no longer embrace your smile The world dies for a beauty is no longer inside Nothingness in sight, darkness covers the light To see your smile again I put up one last fight To embrace your smile again I say a few words To see your smile again I would give my world Give my heart, play my part, for a start change my fate Just to see your smile I would take its resting place For I hope it isn't too late, that I can save her in time Take my life Lord just so I could save her smile For it is a blessing to this world of strife and grief 'Til my very end this will remain my firm belief Beauty of a smile that few understand, yet most can see Even with your imperfections your smile is still perfect to me ...
and so are you
