It Starts with a Smile

How does it End?

It starts with a smile,

Coy or confident, careless or cautious

It starts with a glance,

Bashful or bold, blushing or brave

How it ends is a story in the making.

It starts with an expression,

Radiant or reserved, relaxed or rousing.

It starts with eye contact,

Intense or indistinct, ignorant or insightful.

How it ends is a story in the making.

It starts with a grin,

Pleased or peaceful, proud or poignant

It starts with a look,

Hopeful or humorous, happy or hesitant

How it ends is a story in the making.

Guilherme Almeida, Pexels

It starts with a smile, a glance, chemistry.

It continues with lovers, touching, kissing,

Walking hand in hand, exploring each other as friends.

Hopefully, it doesn’t end.
