The most beautiful smile I ever saw
appeared on a day
when all things bright and beautiful,
should have gone.
The most beautiful smile I ever saw
in fact wasn't beautiful at all.
It was the evil smirk of the
ugliest, and most terrifying of monsters.
One that only hurts.
The most beautiful smile I ever saw
still haunts me but
only in the darkest of dreams.
It appeared when he himself
had struck me down to my knees.
The most beautiful smile I ever saw
is what brought me forward
to put an end to the monster
that only I knew existed;
The very person I should have trusted unquestionably.
Theat smile came again when I was begging a stranger,
"Please don't take us away fr..."
And that smile cut me short,
and ripped my heart apart.
The most beautiful smile I ever saw
in fact wasn't beautiful at all.
It was the evil smirk of the
ugliest, and most terrifying of monsters.
One that only hurts.
The most beautiful smile I ever saw
was only beautiful in the aspect that
it showed, to a young girl,
the truth behind
not her Dad, but her 'father',
who might as well have not
been at father at all.
The most beautiful smile I ever saw
opened up my eyes to the ugly truth.
The most beautiful smile I ever saw
in fact wasn't beautiful at all.
It was the evil smirk of the
ugliest, and most terrifying of monsters.
One that only hurts.
The most beautiful smile I ever saw
set me free, and showed me
I should have never protected them;
The one that hurt, and the one who watched
and did nothing- the one who
dared still call herself my 'mom'.
The most beautiful smile I ever saw
set me free.
The most beautiful smile I ever saw
in fact wasn't beautiful at all.
It was the evil smirk of the
ugliest, and most terrifying of monsters.
One that only hurts.
