Living Dead

Smiles in a crowd of
Smiles go unnoticed
But she walks among
The dead

And among broken
Souls unnoticed
She smiles toward
The dead

Smiles in a crowd of
Smiles are smiles
But smiles among
The dead are noticed

Because the dead recognize
One of them
And her smiles
Kill dead roses

Behind her smiles
A pain goes unnoticed
She smiles yet toward
The dead

Smiles in a crowd of 
Smiles go unnoticed
But the dead know
She is dead
