Smile

Smile for a change
Why are you so sad?
The flowers are blooming once again
Shouldn’t that make you glad?
Spring brings back memories

She lost a husband
then lost a son
so she loaded one bullet
into a gun

All could see Her misery
Left all alone…
the stress was at a max
It couldn't get any bigger
She was left with no choice.
Pointed to her heart
She pulled the trigger.
