The Smile That You Kept For Me There was once a smile, sweet as honey Yet it was wild as the sea A smile that could set bells a ringing The smile that you kept for me An enigmatic smile it was at times At times so lonely A smile that brought cheer to my life The smile that you kept for me It was a smile that caused hearts to flutter With envy and jealousy When people saw it was not for them The smile that you kept for me A smile that brought out the best in me Like courage and bravery A smile that spurred me to greater heights The smile that you kept for me But time took its toll and it faded at last As was never meant to be And strained is that once beautiful smile The smile that you keep for me Deepak Menon |

Deepak....sad, but beautiful my friend. I have been there also. Poetry is the spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings: it takes its origin from emotion recollected in tranquility. -William Wordsworth- |

I agree, just beautiful. Do you not wish that you could freeze moments in time.....? "There is an alter ego which dwells in every soul..." a-alibaster "I am as I am, nothing more, nothing less, I am tears of pain, tears of Death. |

How we see that "special" something that is just for us, very well written, spoken from the heart! The fragrance always stays in the hand that gives the rose...--Hada Bejar |

Wow. This is some good stuff about heartache, demoninlove. But that straining smile chows one thing: that he is in love with another. --Chibi |

sad but true words... very well written... great job...well captured If all was light...then I would have never learnt the dark...from which such truth evolves from which evolves the light... Avanti Rao |

Thank you all - and yes Rex - I would like some moments frozen in time - and another thing - that smile has never changed and I know it never will.... Deepak |
