She Looked Like a Smile

She Looked Like a Smile

she looked like a smile
one that i could keep
she offered me the comfort
of freshly changed sheets
she offered me,
more than enough
and the kind of sex,
you only dream of
she was broken and bent
but in reality,
she was ‘heaven’ sent
she was kind to me,
me, a pigs ear made out of a purse
occasionally, just occasionally
we all need a nurse
she excelled as mine
but her years lied about her maturity
and her decisions were young
all those people though,
some are still here and some are gone
