Deserve a Smile

What a wonderful day.

A dress I think is pretty I buy.

Looking at it makes me sigh smugly.

Wearing it does the same.

Confidence is your own shields shine.

One no one wants to recognize.

I smile in the mirror.

Dwell on the beauty of my dress.

And think I still love myself best.

Now thoughts drift to my flaws.

Not good for much if I must speak.

Not good for much if I can't cheat.

Not good for much if not with a smile.

What is my confidence worth I must think?

Doubting my only possession.

Why do I have confidence if I own so many cruel faults.

Faults that are just as worthy as a fault in ones beauty.

But still I smile.

Mirrors receive my smiles.

Since I deserve a smile every once in awhile.
