Behind the smile

DelphieZhang

In a world where colors blend and sway

Lived a woman who brightened the day

With hair as deep as the midnight sky

And locks of gold that caught your eye

Her eyes a mirror to her soul’s depth

A mix of dreams with every breath

Dark brown tresses like autumn’s cloak

Shoulder-length blonde like dawn's first stroke

She dances through life with grace and ease

A gentle breeze through the tallest trees

Her smile a spark in the darkest night

Her laughter echoing pure delight

In fields of green, under skies so vast

She moves with a grace that’s unsurpassed

Her heart as warm as the summer sun

Her spirit free, she’s always internally young

In her presence, the world feels bright

A blend of shades, both dark and light

A girl unique, with a charm so rare

With the deepest brown and blonde hair fair

Yet beneath that smile lies a truth

A journey marked from days of youth

She overworks with tireless might

Chasing dreams well into the night

Her eyes, they tell a story vast

Of wisdom gained and shadows cast

In her own eyes, perfection’s far

Yet to me, she’s a shining star

She strives so hard, yet often feels

Her worth is hidden, hard to reveal

But in my heart, she’s number one

A cherished soul, second to none

For every flaw she thinks she holds

I see a heart that's pure as gold

Her worth to me is crystal clear

She’s my world, forever dear

So here’s to her, with hair so fine

A soul unique, a heart divine

Perfect or not, she’s all to me

My number one, eternally

I love her in secret, though she won't look my way

My heart aches with each passing day

I wish I could stop running back to her side

But fate pulls us apart, like a relentless tide

Her beauty, her grace, her warmth so pure

In my dreams, she's the only cure

Yet reality keeps us worlds apart

And I wish I could mend this broken heart

If only the future were in my hands

I'd weave a path where love withstands

But for now, I'll cherish from afar

The woman who remains my guiding star

Sadly, this is a real story, I must confess

The truth beneath the girl you see in her dress

With a smile plastered upon her face

She hides the struggle, finds her place

Still searching for her purpose true

In a world so vast, with much to do

But know this secret, as you see her grace

She’s stronger than the storms she'll face

Behind every smile is a thousand untold stories

 Of battles fought and fleeting glories

So remember, as you see her bright

There’s depth beneath her shining light

  • Comment from author about the poem: This is the story behind the girl I have feelings for - whom I shall not name. As a lesbian, it is hard to ignore homophobes and give it all up for love. Please understand that not every smile is a real one..
