Make me smile
You make me smile
Through lousy days
Summer haze
Minor irritations that escalate
From dawn to dusk
a thought or two
Of us
Is just enough
to turn my day
around
For you I know
Will always be
Just enough
For a girl like me
To want to stay
Not up and leave
In us I do
Believe.
You make me smile
Yet now and then
You are the reason
That I don’t
The reason
That I wont
Even try
To see the funny side
That lasts not even a little while
Despite myself
Despite my wealth
My emotional
Security
Maturity
Childishly
Eventually
So
Unreservedly
I confess
that you
Make me smile
Happy SMSx
