Best of You

Smile,
It’s got the best of you,
Trust me,
As I trusted you,
Let loose,
All the pain that glues you,
Keeps you stuck in misery,
Smile,
It’s the best of you,
Tell me,
As I told you,
Of the way,
That pain will always be fleeting,
Leading us to better days,
We’ll joke,
We can laugh,
But that’s not why I smile today,
It’s a comfort thing,
A place I was so long estranged from,
But now,
Just maybe I’ve come home.
