Smile


Smiling is Contagious,Infectious, Almost Religious

I smile because I think my smile is vicious

In a sea of millions my smile is almost devious

But i smile to get away from all the uneasiness

Hugs in the morning and kisses at night keep me smiling

I smile at the beauty in the night and the heat of the day,

My world is constantly changing but my smile is not

My smile is my candle, Smiling is my happiness in the world

Sending a small smile to strangers on the train could be the highlight of their day

I have spent the better part of my life knowing that even if you fake smile,

Even fake it for long enough you will begin to feel that way

My smile is my safe haven, and the world around me

Could use a little more bright spots

My gleaming, Bright smile is that for the world around me
