Analysis of Feeling Warmth in a Smile
It is the smile of a child
that feels happy and free
bringing joy to my heart
setting goals for me.
It is the laughter with friends
that don't mind my mistakes
turning cries into joy
till the morning breaks.
It is the light in your eyes
that I seek to enflame
warm it up every day
in a we-win-game.
