Behind The Smile

A smile that blinds, a charm so sweet,

A force that can make any heart skip a beat.

But beware, dear friend, for it's not what it seems,

For beneath the surface, darkness teems.

The heart that wears this mask so well,

Is not one that's pure, but one of hell.

A soul so twisted, a mind so dark,

To the world, it shows a friendly mark.

But behind closed doors, a different story,

One of malice, hatred, and a thirst for glory.

A facade so strong, it's hard to see,

The evil lurking behind the smile that's free.

Oh, how the world falls for the trap,

The charm, the wit, the wit so apt.

A heart that's cold, a soul that's dead,

A smile so bright, it blinds the head.

For love and sadness intertwined,

In a heart so twisted and unkind.

The smile that blinds, a weapon of choice,

But to the perceptive, a warning voice.

The tears that flow, a sign of the pain,

The heart that aches, the mind that's strained.

To see beyond the smile that blinds,

To uncover the darkness that binds.

A life that's lived, in shadows and lies,

A love that's given, with hidden despise.

The mask that's worn, with such great ease,

A heart that's black, with hidden keys.

The love they show, a mere illusion,

A trap that leads to a cruel confusion.

The sadness felt, a burden to bear,

As the fake smile continues to ensnare.

The eyes may twinkle, the lips may curve,

But behind the mask, a sinister nerve.

Deception, a game played so well,

To those who see, it's hard to tell.

The smile that blinds, a shield from the truth,

A mask that hides, a soul so uncouth.

The love that's given, so easily feigned,

A heart that's broken, a mind that's strained.

Beware the smile that blinds, my friend,

For it hides a heart that will not bend.

A soul so evil, a heart so dangerous,

A facade so strong, yet so contagious.

The world may fall for the trap,

The charm, the wit, the wit so apt.

But those who see beyond the veil,

Can save themselves from such great travail.

So if you ever meet a smile that blinds,

A heart so dark, a soul so unkind,

Remember this warning, my dear friend,

And let not your heart be easily penned.
