A Single Smile

A little poem I made when I was bored about a girl who feels alond and how her life was changed by a tiny smile one day. The impact one little gesture has on a life. Please give feed back

A Single Smile
The corners of his mouth twitched 
just like that he flipped her heart's switch.
She tried so hard not to care
but then he strolled in hiding behind his long hair.
She didn't know his name.
But she could tell they were the same.
Her whole life she spent invisible
She tried acting so invincible.
and with a pair of dimples he did the impossible
he made her feel something incredible.
She hid behind her make-up and different shades of black
Her hair was dark and a smile is what she lacked
She hid behind her emotionless mask
But no one knew this was such a task.
You could only tell by here eyes. 
even with her eyeliner she could never put them in a disguise
If you looked into her eyes you could see her pain
You'd be able to tell she was slowly going insane
You'd be able to see all the years
All her many fears
How no one she ever cared for was sincere
all of her shed tears.
Her memories plagued her pools of crystal blue
No one even knew
No one cared to look at her hard enough, no one had a clue.
Until the day he smiled at her, because then she saw it in him too.
She needed to know his story, his feelings, everything
She watched him in the hallway
She couldn't get the nerve to spit out a single hey
For so long she watched, but never spoke
Until the day she lost all hope.
She saw him with a girl
She was just like him,
This girl was all alone in the world
but when they were together they were happy.
The girl hid behind long bangs and smudgey mascara
She watched them for so long, Sometimes pretended he was hers
But in the end of the day he's something she'd never deserve
She couldn't even talk
and as she watched them walk
 She thought how he'd never know
That with his smile, he saved her life
she noticed how long it's been since she used her knife.
He'll never know that he gave her a reason
He gave her hope.
He made her feel
he made her happy.
Though he didn't know
That with a single smile.
He changed her life, now she smiled too
At people passing by.
Sometimes thinking if any of them knew
The magic a smile could do.
