His Smile

His smile

Is a light in

The oppressive darkness

That is our world.

Seeing the light of his smile

Keeps me going through

The world that we live in.

I miss having that connection

With the man

That would laugh at my jokes

And give me the love

I never knew

That I needed.

Seeing his eyes sparkle as he smiled at me

Made everything worth it.

I hope he finds someone

That makes him happy

And treats him better

Than I could.
