I keep a smile in my heart.
To stand firm when the ground beneath is shaken by crooked smiles in heavens robes.
I keep a smile to continue singing a sweet lullaby to fear and despair in the hope that soon my own dreams will awake and stop counting sheep.
I keep a smile in my heart.
For you dear child in your desperate hour clinging on to life, defy death with each breath you take.
It is for you over there who love would not love I keep a smile for and to you I say, “first let your own love grow from within your own existence and let it flourish from the wells of your good nature. Only then will the world acknowledge the invitation to come drink from your cup.”
Fear not what mirrors reflect, instead keep a smile in your heart and grasp the fact that as much as summer needs winter, angels too need demons.
I keep a smile and tip toe around caution, dancing between the margin separating illusions from reality.
I keep a smile in my heart,
and maybe one day it will break out in laughter…
