Never Regret What Makes You Smile
R Bennett Okerstrom
Promises to others
Kept us apart,
Separated us from
What would have undoubtedly
Replaced the pain.
You unzipped my heart and stepped inside.
Just as sudden as you did,
You left it broken without a word.
I remember everything you said
To open the lock to get within.
I wanted you inside,
And everyday without your voice
Deepens scars you left behind.
Never regret what makes you smile
Is what I said to you.
Never regret what made you smile
My words did not get through.
Never regret what makes you smile
No matter what you do.
Never regret what made you smile
The only thing I want is you.
