Her Smile

She used to light the room with her grin

Now it feels like shadows creeping in

I’m lost in this maze of doubt

Looking for answers but can’t figure it out

Her laughter was the melody I chased

Now silence feels like an empty space

I can't heal her

No

I can't find the way

Her smile's a memory

It's fading every day

I’m broken

I’m falling

Trying to reconcile

But I still see her

My daughter’s smile

She used to twirl like the world was her stage

Now she’s trapped in a story I can’t unpage

Her tears write the words I can’t erase

A daughter’s heartache I can’t replace

Tell me how to fight this storm inside

When the rain won’t stop and the sun won’t shine

I’d give my soul just to see her whole

To fix the cracks

To make her glow

I can't heal her

No

I can't find the way

Her smile's a memory

It's fading every day

I’m broken

I’m falling

Trying to reconcile

But I still see her

My daughter’s smile
