    About this ebook

    Girl Behind the Smile is a collection of poetry that is as joyous and painful as authentic and disarming as life itself. Ariel best exemplifies her ability to express her desires, fears, and frustrations that life brings us. Each poem deals with a different pain. Heals a different heartache. Life can make us bitter but we have to be able to find time to smile because there is time to smile even during life’s most bitter moments.
