Smile

Lately I thought

The more I forced

A tug on my lips,

A glint in my eyes,

A light in my face

Like the flicker of flames

As they dance in the fire,

The easier it would be,

The more natural it would feel,

And maybe even some day

My mind would recall

How it felt to smile

And I would be able to

Do it for real.
