Never Until A Smile
www.facebook.com/WRRPoetry [Never Until A Smile]
Like liquor in raised bottle
Drenching a sorrowful man’s tongue
I saw her tears, raining
Intoxicating my heart
Making it too heavy to carry

So I staggered away
Praying to recover
But knowing I would never
Until…
I see her smile from a happy heart.
