SMILE?

you were a stranger
i knew you not then

for me you were an incognito

and things i couldn't apprehend

you came to touch my soul
but i was afraid
i shrank back in horror
tried to move myself out of your way

extending out your friendly hand
your warm eyes bore into mine
like a flash of light it hit me
your silly crooked smile

i took your hand
no longer afraid
i let you touch my soul
a part of me then you became

the bond hard to divorce


and suddenly you vanished

like a spell gone wrong

i was left in the darkness
all on my own

i searched out for you
but you were already gone
you left me without a word
and reasons unknown

your voice echoed in my ears
asking me to smile
but how could i? when you took it all..

all my reasons to smile
