Takes a mile to Smile

On long days of feeling sadness
I dig deep to find my gladness

Events around me each day
Always try to block my way

Writing releases the anxiety inside
So I don’t run off and hide

From the kind of person I need to be
That will help others good to see

How I act today Can be my future keeper
Motivation for me to dig a little deeper

Pen to paper, words fly to the pages
Each sentence lifts me to better stages

One day I can throw my book away
The day when sadness Never stays

I feel no smile inside today
But I won’t let others steal my okay

All the negative words they spew
Won’t Turn my heart arctic blue

My heart screams smile, but instead
This frown I carry inside my head

I find a quiet place to stay calm
Until my smile finds healing balm

It is said it takes many muscles to create
a smile

somedays, the desire takes up too
many miles

On long days of overwhelming sadness
I will keep digging deep
to find my gladness
