A smile found

By rage_angel

For the first time
In a long time
I found the lost smile
I've been looking for
The sparkle begins in the eyes
The same one that used to tell lies
Now they crinkle with delight
And a laugh escapes
So many times
Tears came instead
For the pain I was fed
Is stll there, but not as close
To the surface anymore
The whole that you tore
No longer exsists
It's covered up
A life replaced the pain
A laugh erased the same
For the first time
In a long time
I found my smile

    hrm. i like this, it's simple and straight to the point. Around here this write stands out like a muppet on a train track. The only little tid bit that i didnt like was the presentation, all the caps. But thats just one man's opinion. Nicely Done [D&A]
