Secret Smile Poem by John F. McCullagh

I know that I'm not perfect
that sometimes I'm much less-
But love can make our future
much better than our past.

I think sometimes that you forget
How beautiful you are.
You see yourself a bit player
where I see you, the star.

I wish that you could see yourself
in the mirror of my eyes.
So that when I'm just a memory
You'd still have cause to smile

The miles between us can't erase
my heartfelt love of you.
That's why when no one else can see
You'd catch me smiling too.
