Such a Lovely Smile

Such a lovely smile
Such expressive eyes
No one suspects the pain inside
Look closely now
Can you see the regret?
A lifetime spent learning to hide
A courageous heart
That can’t be contained
Now poised to shed those years of pain
Open up, let it flow
Receive the love
Your time has come, time to connect
It’s safe this time
It’s not too late

A smile can never truly hide the pain from someone who loves you.

This is the sweetest thing that I've read lately. I love it and say Thanks for being a voice for 'her' and all of us. She is a beauty indeed.
