do you remember the times you have that smile written all over your face?
you're sitting
staring at nothing
but that smile's just there.
you think you seem weird so you attempt to rub it off
but no matter how much you try, it goes nowhere.
in the end, you let it be.
you let the feeling linger inside of you.
you realize it's worth whatever impression you get.
it's worth the passing of each second.
it's worth every beat of your heart.
it's worth every ounce of His blood.
is it yet to settle on you?
that smile is not yours to begin with.
it was His.
it is His.
it will forever be His.
you smile because He first smiled at you.
you smile because in you, lies the certainty that even though everything is fleeting and impermanent
what you believe in endures.
you fail but He helps you succeed.
you fall but He picks you back up.
you falter but He keeps you steady.
He is everything your heart has been screaming for.
and now that you have heard his faint whisper: I love you.
you smile.
