There is a certain thrill to be had
In breaking the rules.
In deviating
From the prescribed path.
In smiling
Where tears are the norm.
—————–
I have been told
That I smile too much
That it is fake
Forced
Untrue.
I have also been told
That my smile
Lights up the room,
And brightens a sad day.
——————-
So
I vow to break the rules.
And I invite you
To break your rules too.
Come,
Smile with me.
Walk with me.
Take hold of my hand
And dance with me.
——————
We will forge a small nook
Within the confines of our smiles
Where we will hide away
And bask
In each others light.
In each others smile.
If only for a minute
If only for a glance.
Come.
Let’s break the rules.
In breaking the rules.
In deviating
From the prescribed path.
In smiling
Where tears are the norm.
—————–
I have been told
That I smile too much
That it is fake
Forced
Untrue.
I have also been told
That my smile
Lights up the room,
And brightens a sad day.
——————-
So
I vow to break the rules.
And I invite you
To break your rules too.
Come,
Smile with me.
Walk with me.
Take hold of my hand
And dance with me.
——————
We will forge a small nook
Within the confines of our smiles
Where we will hide away
And bask
In each others light.
In each others smile.
If only for a minute
If only for a glance.
Come.
Let’s break the rules.
