Almost a smile

Like the sun here in November

Almost a smile



Almost a smile

Lakes that glitter behind trees

Blinking lamps in dusky streets

Almost a smile



Almost a smile

Like the bliss of northern summer

Hopefulness with the new-comer



Very casual and unstable

like a guest will leave the table



Like a day when nothing happens

when you were sure the worst would happen

Almost a smile



Like a word that isn't worthless

that you haven't heard in lies yet

Almost a smile



Like the presence of a stranger

when you've lived in constant danger

Almost a smile



Passing cars, surprising comfort

Like a lover at the airport

Almost a smile
