When you smile at me

 By Pramoth Adhivarahan

The wonders you do

When you smile at me

Is a fact I can’t deny

Don’t put up this show

That you don’t know

What you do to me

When you smile at me

You like to torture

With those eyes

That keep saying things

I think I only imagine

The things I see

When you smile at me

The thoughts that I hear

When you speak to me

Don’t ever come out in reality

All the while

When we are alone

I never say

What I should be

I just smile back at you

When you smile at me

Then the time comes

To say goodbye

And as the way you always do

You say, “See you”

I say the same

And walk away

I think I missed another day

A chance that went away

Will I ever be?

That brave enough

To say the things

I always think of

When you smile at me.
