As tough as it may have been, and may be still, a hesitant smile so gracefully lands on thirsty lips.
Just a smile, nothing more, nothing less.
A forgotten treat, a not-so-guilty pleasure, just a smile...
Her face wonders, the eyes squint, while the muscles struggle to adapt... What is going on? They demand to know!
An inner sigh of brief relief... Followed by a voice, shouting out to the world, her inner world, to come out and dance... Scaring the tears away... If just for a while...
Just a smile... Sometimes that is the only thing we truly miss yet we don't realize its absence until it visits once again...
