bought a candy, here and there

i saw the candy man and his smile on his face

he called for me, i came instantly

how fragile my heart is?

packs of chocolates

in shapes of rounds and hearts

for days and nights

spent them greatly for these chocolates

until on sunday,

i felt an unbearable pain

went back to the candy man,

he is no longer there

i faced my mother to be scolded

my teeth turned black

the candy man took my smile away.
