Give Me A Smile (A Song Lyric) Poem by Peter S. Quinn

Give me a smile before I close my eyes
The world's in blackness to a lonely day
Always living with nothing more to say
Turning always from these tortured done lies

The sun is now set for the morning sky
This living isn't too easy to embrace
If you want to walk in a steady grace
Without giving reasons to where and why

Cards have been played from beginnings to end
Setting the time curves to twisted morals
No one to notice when shadows will chrome

Each of its lies will hold close its own trend
Nothing to rise to the tentative laurels
Where each of its stakes’s a long way from home
