Everyone keeps
a special smile
hidden under their mattress
or next to the night-stand,
reserved specially for
the special ones.

However,
according to scientists or
romantic comedy writers
or whoever knows
anything about these things,

the problem arises because
everyone wants the one person
who can't be had;

So we all die a little every day
and everyone thinks
secretly
that maybe they
are really going crazy,
this time,

And the voices
in their heads
just
might
be right,

And what if
there is no special smile,
reserved specially for us?
