A Smile

by fireflylights13   Jul 8, 2013


A smile
that's all it is
no joy or happiness
Just a smile,
that pulls on cracked lips

It doesn't reach her eyes
dull and lifeless
Or raise her pale cheeks
even a fraction of an inch

But because of that smile
we don't notice the rest
Because of that smile
we don't see the pain right in front of us
