Liliana Roman - Once and a while

O please, oh please
Why don't you smile once and a while?
Your frown makes my mouth fill with bile.
You seem to think that nothing about you matters
It makes me
Mad
Mad
Mad
Like the mad, mad hatter
What is wrong?
Do you fell as though you don't belong?
You don't see
That I spend all of my time
Trying to fill your heart with thyme
Oh no!
It seems that I have run out of rhymes
O please, o please
One smile
That's all I ask
Just one smile
Just one genuine smile
Just one smile
Just for me?


*it takes less muscles to smile than it does to frown but yet I know that smiling can be one of the hardest things in the world to do.*
