WHY I SOMETIMES WEAR A SMILE AT THE WRONG TIME

Sometimes it happens
(not all the time
but once in a while)
You meet someone,
You somehow just trip over
That one smile
You'd like to keep
In your pocket for a while.
(maybe not forever
cause THAT
Is a long long time)
But for a while.
Because, see,
Somehow it travels,
That smile
From lips to pocket
And to lips again.

What i mean to say is,
That your smile,
The one you can't hide?
(or is that mine?)
Mild or wild-
I'm keeping it
Inside the pocket
In my mind.
