every smile destroys

once held the sun close
too dark to make out
any of these faces
what does he get out
of the raw deal
nothing materialistic
will compensate
what he lost daily
and at night that security
tight connection
once held the sun
and it didn’t seem
forced held for so long
could probably heal
without words
holding that sun one last time
even the embraced
forced now as well
meant something once
or not no one knows
impossible to hold the sun
hungry people won’t starve
stomach won’t leave his mind alone
his heart wide open
nothing is the same
and words probably meant
nothing as well…
