I Will Keep That Smile by GidiQuotes(op): 9:07am On Oct 16, 2015
I will keep that smile even
If tears drop from my eye.
That smile that smile till I die.

They see the red eye
They think am high.
They don't know i
Am trying not to cry.
That smile that smile till I die.

It never gets delicious even
When they add salt to injury.
That smile that smile till I die

I am never going to frown
No matter how I go down
I am a king with a crown
That smile that smile till I die


A poem from my chapbook mama's boy

A face state
A smile for that matter
Considering varying human circumstances
The question beckons

How long can one hold
Is the writeup made out of necessity
Or to truly justify one's heart
This I ask out of care

I read it with doubt
Please forgive me
But I truly pray its truthfulness
For to be stoic, that I crave for
