There's one language,

We can all speak.

The language,

Of your soul,

One must seek.


For it is hidden

Deep inside.

Covered,

By the words,

And human lies.


This language is not,

Taught in school.

And can't,

Be learned,

Through reading books.


You'll find it where,

The feelings lie.

Locked up,

In cages,

Of your mind.


And once you found them,

Let them free.

Release,

Your feelings,

Let them be.


Then you will,

Learn to be yourself.

To feel.

To speak, the language,

True to self.


You'll learn,

The language of a smile.

The one,

That shines,

With tremble light.


The one that,

Keeps you warm at night,

And lights,

The paths,

Within a dreadful storm.


It heals,

Without the stitches.

And fuels,

The dreams,

With hope.


It brings one peace.

It brings you cheer.

It brings me sense

Of home, so dear.


Oh hear,

My wish upon a star.

I want,

To see the day:

When all will speak,


The language of an honest smile.

The language of an honest smile
