Smiles go miles

I entered the room.
I was haggard.
I haven’t combed my unruly hair.
I was perspiring.
I haven’t slept enough.
I was everything not nice to look at when you want to have a fresh scene.
Someone talked to me and asked me something.
Suddenly, I glanced at you.
You were smiling.
We were looking at each other.
I cannot remember if I smiled back at you and I wish I did.
I think I stopped talking that very exact moment.
I think my mouth was agape.
I cannot remember anything but you and your smile.
Everything seemed to be in sweet slow motion.
It felt good. I felt better.
It simply touched me.
So beautiful, so unique.
It is one of the sweetest smiles I have ever seen.
SMILE!
