"Smile"

My reason to smile,

Not just to turn away the colors of blue,

But also, 'cause I haven't in a while.

My reason to smile at you

Is because you made my day,

So it isn't just because I wanted to.

Smiling shakes the stress away

Whenever you got big tasks

Charging at you in one day.

While it may not forever last,

I can still put another one

Same as the previous fast.

It will do good in the long run

As I continue progress.

A smile like a contest you've won.

Frowning only makes you regress.

Even just for a little while,

Smiling always makes a diff'rence.

So, my reason to smile,

Not just to turn away the colors of blue,

But also, 'cause I haven't in a while.
