When You Smile Poem by Lagaya Evans

Life isn't easy
Even sometimes hard
The most delicate thing
Can break our heart

We take as we get
What this life gives
Often to realize
Just how we live

Some might say
You have it all
They just can't see
How close to call

Then out of the dark
It can't be
One thing untouchable
You just know you need

You dare breathe
Or even brush his hand
When you hear the music
And there's no band

Lightening flashes
Blinding your sight
You can't help but wonder
Is it worth the fight

Has my time passed
Is all in vain
Have I waited to long
Feeling only the pain

One glimpse, I'll look
Just what could be
If I'd met you
And you'd met me

I see the sun
Shining at night
Making all around
So full of light

Flowers in bloom
Blue skys in May
I can't help but wonder
Just what to say

All my whole life
I've waited on you
Never even knowing
That you have, too

Lifes not easy
Even sometimes hard
The most delicate thing
Can break our heart

A place only for you
Where I can hide
Empty my tears
From all inside

I'll gain my strength
Drawing it from
This tiny chamber
I often come

So don't fret about me
While on this mile
If it's only to see
When you smile
