I never understood
why you
despised
the look of
your smile
and hid behind
your notebook
every time
a deep,
low chuckle
emerged
from your
throat
because
from what
I can see,
a smile as
bright
as yours
has the power
to blind
orbs even
as dark
as mine
and is
magnificent
enough to
fix broken
hearts
and smash
them right
after.
I suggest for
you to
smile,
darling,
for when you
do,
the world
forgets
about
the shell
of the
broken
person
you hate
to be.
