A Broken Smile

A broken smile resembles sadness

A broken smile resembles a fake front

A broken smile resembles bitterness

A broken smile resembles an edge made blunt

A broken smile resembles nights filled with tears

A broken smile resembles haunting memories

A broken smile resembles thoughts filled with fears

A broken smile resembles lasting miseries

A broken smile resembles broken hearts and souls

A broken smile resembles broken trust

A broken smile resembles improved walls

A broken smile resembles loneliness with a layer of dust

A broken smile resembles a past

A broken smile resembles a fight to keep going

A broken smile may not last

But a broken smile resembles growing
