She had nothing left to give
Not of her body nor soul
Drained
She could give no more
But a smile
As faint as it might be
A smile
That’s all he needed to see
Never had they known
A medicine
Made of a smile so small
And a healing
So cheap
Tag: smile
Smile
She wears a mask
Unashamed
Not because she’s ugly
Not because she’s afraid
Behind the mask she can safely hide
She knows they don’t care to know the colors inside
Truths can’t be untold
Here she lays with a different mask to hold
