Smile.

Writer's picture: Vimida DasVimida Das



It is okay to find your smile,

In the dreary winters of the life.

It is okay to let your hair down,

And not go seeking the frown.

It is okay to find cheer,

And not give in, even after horror and tears.

You are allowed to have fun,

To let go of the past.

See butterflies and dragonflies

Float around in magic carpets of wind,

And let the gaiety of this moment,

Tug at corners of your lips.

Splash around in myriad colours of majestic flowers,

And twirl to the tune of bubbling springs.

You are allowed to find innocence in your heart once again.

You are allowed to take a respite from your pain.

Your hurt does not define you,

What defines you is how you choose to heal.

So honey, my darling, smile—

Find your own path to joy.

It is okay to smile, it really is.
