Broken tooth smile

Posted on by thosegilligans_bm456c

Not many know who or what broke you
Only that you smile despite it.
With young eyes
An Old soul within
Childish spirit
Underneath beautifully toasted caramel skin
A dance so intoxicating
Who may step in, who can keep up?
Is there a spot for me during your secret lunch
Hidden words seeping from a concentrated hunch
Put down your mask,
take off your glasses so all may see
You know they gossip about your mystery
The shallow turned away, backtracking for miles
Lovely gifts hidden beneath a broken smile
Hidden beneath pinched lips
Leaning closer for maybe just a sip
Its okay we’re highly protected
Heart of velvet
All I want to do is sweep in and melt it.
Cleared the space and found the time
Despite your broken smile, i will still call you mine They know,
we know,
despite your brokenness you’re doing just fine.
Under gray clouds or sunny weather
We can be broken yet doing “Just Fine” together ♡

Don’t let something so shallow as “broken” keep you from the beauty

Anybody who knows me, knows this poem came from a very self-conscious place. Along with medical reasons, after my ex broke my front tooth, it took away my smile, my confidence. I was raised to judge those with a broken smile but now as I struggle with the financial burden to fix what was broke, I have been forced to put down my shallow ways. I had to learn to love me in ALL my brokenness. Stopped avoiding the mirror. I do well hiding childhood trauma and mental illness… but I can not hide whats on my face.

My conclusion:: Maybe it’ll cause some to runaway, but maybe ill learn that the real ones stay. Either way,, That can nolonger be my focus.

What is.. I AM Loving unconditionally, a broken me.

    1. I too have found that many people who suffer with mental illness has had to heal and deal with the after effects including damaged dental health as well. This has also helped me in changing my shallow views of the subject and helped me to continue forward in my journey despite my brokenness

  5. Interesting. My face was more defined when I was bulimic and quite often eating massive quantities of food. Now its more rounded/ less defined now despite having less bodyfat. Carlye Weber Lachlan

    1. Would you say you liked the chiseled look or a softer look?
      Either way when we consider the beauty that can form and shines from a deeper place. a beauty that can shine through all the cracks and broken places. Do you think whats on the outside matters much?

    1. Meh,
      who says its too much time when its beneficial to yours or anothers life. I know i can say that your comment has personally given me the boost to stay on my writing. Sometimes it can get lost under all the responsibilities of life. But then we come across a stranger or friend who reminds us and or inspires us to not lose ourselves. I appreciate your comment and thosegilligans appreciate you <3

  10. Hi there fantastic website! Does running a blog like this take
    a great deal of work? I have no understanding of computer programming but I was hoping to start my own blog in the near future.

    Anyways, should you have any ideas or tips for new blog
    owners please share. I know this is off topic however I just had to ask.
    Many thanks!

    1. I think the hardest thing for me is consistency. Writing is a coping skills for me that I love, but posting and or sharing is the hard part for me.
      I also am not tech savvy but I think as long as you are willing to learn and grow through whatever obstacles come your way, you’ll do great.
      Please find your way back to us once you start your blog so we may also support. I think that goes a long way for us independent artist <3

  21. Today, while I was at work, my cousin stole my iphone and tested to see if it can survive a twenty five foot drop, just so she can be a youtube sensation. My iPad is
    now broken and she has 83 views. I know this is entirely off topic
    but I had to share it with someone!

    1. People.. even family
      Can “want” the best for us, but do not always KNOW what’s best for us. If you are receiving good here, then it can’t be a waste. Can it? Just don’t forget to take what you learn and go out into the real world and spread it and or act in it. Then it’s def not a waste.

      Now the waste would be to know something and not act on it, I hope your family appreciates your dedication to learning and doing better for yourself <3
      Much love from ThoseGilligans

  26. Link exchange is nothing else but it is just placing the other
    person’s webpage link on your page at appropriate place and other person will also do similar in support of
    you.

  27. Right here is the perfect website for everyone who hopes to understand this topic.

    You realize so much its almost hard to argue with you (not that I personally will need
    to…HaHa). You definitely put a new spin on a subject which
    has been discussed for decades. Excellent stuff, just
    wonderful!

    1. I appreciate the love, I’ve always been the one to love deep conversations and subjects that may feel raw but need a safe space to speak on.
      I want to be that safe place
