Smiling! ! * Poem by Becky Ginn

Many clouds fill your world,
The sky is always black,
Thoughts of horror, always in your mind,
Just wishing you could turn back.

The sun never shines through to you,
Your heart is always closed,
Let me open it up,
And swallow all your woes.

Let my breath warm your cheeks,
My soft embrace hold you in,
And fill your heart with love,
Let me save you from your sin.

I want to see that smile,
See it struggle across your lips,
Lighting up your face again,
Like it always did.
