The Universe's Grin

"I hope someday the world will smile back."

By Brandis AjayPublished 6 years ago โ€ข 1 min read

The sky shines with the universeโ€™s grin

It plunges down into the deep blue sea

Ascending from horizons in the East

Raining down and sparkling upon us.

Her smile swells beyond infinity

But we--We never smile back at her.

Her warmth comes face to face with hearts of ice

She tries to end this never ending war;

I hope some day the world will smile back.

She battles us with grace and charm, but she

Just canโ€™t win, just canโ€™t win, just cannot win.
