Daylight Strikes Your Smile

a poem by thenorm

Daylight strikes your smile

Then whisks itself away.

In your eyes, for just a while,

It lingers, then does call a day.

Moonlight oft does shimmer

Upon your silvery frame.

Tears do seldom glimmer,

From your eyes, filled with pain.

Your eyes are cold as steel,

And as distant as the seas.

No one knows what you feel

Or who you used to be.

Who you are, I don’t know

But you never leave when you go.
