smile...



emotions that stab like knives.
crying widows, broken wives.
thoughts that shoot happiness on sight

touching poems seal closed wounds,
of cold dark rooms and un-opened tombs.
crying mothers with unbirthing wombs.

so smile..
even if its for a little while.
even if it doesnt mean a thing...
just... SMILE....
