Her Smile
Did you see that? That smile,
That one symbol that shows she actually lives.
Her eyes dead from all that she has seen,
Those images haunt her in her dreams. Her face,
Covered in scars that only she can see, from her inner battles.
Did you see that? There is was again!
That one sweet thing. That one sweet thing
In a box full of demons, Pandora’s box.
Did you see that? A twitch in the corner of her mouth.
She fights it. Her body a wreck from all the abuse and yet she has the strength to stand.
She a fighter and yet she has given in to many times.
Funny isn’t it? She resembles a weak link in a chain that has been broken many times.
And yet she has not been broken.
Did you see that? A small smile. Now look there it goes.
Bigger and bigger yet.
She smiles, her eyes dead, her body beat and torn and defeated, but she chooses to smile!
Now, look at the camera. Say Cheese!
