Innocent youth mixed with a rush of excitement, darkness, and a crush; soft skin (my smile) to the touch. A moment that is realized, when pride has been improvised. "What just happened!?": (my smile) Par- alyzed! A lap substitutes a chair. Oxygen replaced with air: literal sweetness! (my smile) Of your hair. A heavy head not knowing it's lent it's mind to cause; tired; spent: lie back, close eyes: (my smile) that moment. A smile directed like an attack on a heart that's hurt, with love in lack: Caught by surprise. My smile sent right back. Things I like to think I have thought upon, as some things are never taught: The life you lead was a battle fought, not merely something ancestry bought. Like the sound of an apple being caught, please, Learn to seek that which should be sought!

My smile

*I wrote thinking about things that happen/have happened and the moments in which smiles aren't necessarily shown, but felt, and how easy it is to not remember/appreciate those times. **More than seriously though: go get an apple, throw it up in the air and catch in one hand. Listen to the sound it makes! It's friggin awesome!
