Is Smile Immortal?

I go where my feet take me along to explore the life and myself.

Expecting the tough
being genuine in search
I portray myself
 
Others Offering
distract me frequently but
My heart keeps pacing 

Being modest though
I question even my smile
Is that immortal? 

Is there Life past death
but my present asks me to
act before I die

This is a haibun(prose + haiku/tanka), I have chosen Haiku to club with prose.

  8. We are often 'distracted' by what others see as the best for themselves - not necessarily 'us'.

    Always be true to your good self, question and answer, learn and teach. What lies beyond is a mystery I will wait for. ;)

    Thanks for stopping by. Continue exploring everyday!
