Rediscover

Your smile once brought light to the darkest of days,
yet it’s been long ago since your smile went away.
Such a beauty and a treasure, such a joy to behold…
That it pierces the flesh and cuts straight to the soul.
Since its been gone this whole world just seems cold,
without the warmth of your smile, life can no longer grow.
If only your sun could shine again on my face,
bringing some sort of comfort, and peace in this place.
One smile was enough to absorb all the pain,
maybe that’s why your smile has alas went away…
Beneath a sea of tears, and the twists of a maze,
how could I take advantage of the gift that you gave.
Though you try to force past it, it’s just not the same,
leaving me all alone here to cope with this pain…
Through this labyrinth I search for the source of my zen,
On a quest to rediscover your smile once again.
