Smiling For Days

When you see her smiling and laughing it is the most
Beautiful thing anyone could ever see because even
With her gentle spirit no one would know that she
Was broken or hurt by someone else. Her west coast
Type of vibe is something she will always believe in
And no one could take that away. Her childlike glee

That rings loudly today because in the past it was her
Tears that took over. She stands strong because only
She knew what it was like to be vulnerably exposed.
Only she can be the one standing on top of a Big Sur
Mountain while realizing that she can be less lonely
And can conquer anything when she has disposed

Her old skin like a shedding snake. She recognizes
That being around those people who have elevated
Her spirits when she is down and makes her smile
For days are good people without any compromises
On her happiness. This is something she has waited
For her whole life and she makes it all worthwhile.
