Your eyes always twinkle.
Even in your darkest days.
One of the many things I love about you.
But if they looked closely they could see the hurt hiding behind your eyes from predators.
I know that you said you were fine but I also know that's a lie.
You are so guarded about your feelings.
I understand because I am too.
we are both drowning in the darkness of the night.
let me show you the break of the dawn.
You don't have to hide.
Take my hand  let's run till we outrun the out demon.

A smile is always tugging at your lips whether it is sad
bitter
fake
or genuine.
All I want to do is to make you smile only because of happiness.
