Your Smile Poem by Ryan Orleans

Your Smile

Rating: 5.0


Nothing comes close
No, nothing compares
To those sunset eyes
Or that auburn hair

Sitting upon your smile

It charms and romances
My cold, hardened heart
Its warmth just entrances
It's love's work of art

Oh how wonderful, your smile

It carries my day
As it carries my soul
It takes my sadness away
And helps keep me whole

That beautiful smile

Nothing compares
Indeed, nothing comes close
To these three great things
That I care for the most

You, your love, and your smile

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
This is a poem I wrote on a card I gave my girlfriend (I suppose now my ex) for Valentine's day. Obviously, the inspiration was her amazing smile. I rushed into the restaurant she worked in that night. It was very nearly midnight, so I had a few minutes before Valentine's day was over and the place was packed and fully-booked. I had a bouquet of white roses with me as well. It was raining hard but I still walked 15 minutes to get there and it made her cry in the middle of the restaurant while the customers all seemed touched, particularly the women who would then hit their husbands/boyfriends while saying 'Look at that young man, he walked through the rain to give her those flowers while she worked! Why can't you be as romantic as him? '.

Needless to say, it was one of the highlights of our relationship.

I apologise if it seems like I'm just dumping my bittersweet memories of her on this site, given that my first poem was about our break-up. She really just was the best that's ever happened to me in the brief 23 years that I've been alive.

I'm not sure how this site works for replying to comments but thank you for this and the other comment you made on my first poem! It would be nice to meet someone remotely as great as this girl is, but I still reserve the hope that we may one day rekindle our romance. But as of now, I'll just fondly remember the best times of my life with her as we both continue on our way down the road. Thank you again for the encouragement, and worry not, I'll writing for a while :)
