Smile Poem by Rae Polonsky

Smile



What is a smile?
Something that is forced?
Something that is genuine?
Something that is funny?
Something that is unique?

A smile is something I remember
I remember you loved my smile
You loved me once too.

You held me in your arms.
You never let go.

Then one day I cried.
And you smiled, you laughed actually,
told me to stop.

Let that be known. That to you
a smile is my tears.
