being sad doesn't mean I will cry,
and
being happy doesn't mean I will smile,
because having a gun doesn't mean I'll shoot.
Make me feel accepted,
Remind me it's okay to be broken,
Let me know I'm not alone,
Show me how it feels to be loved.
You-
Touch me like you really care,
Kiss me like you know I'm still afraid,
Watch me like I'm your favorite show.
You-
Love me enough for the both of us,
Hold me like you don't want to let go.
You-
Teach me how to not fake a smile.
You-
I love you.
I saw the way your face changed
When I came over and said hello.
I've never seen a friend
Go from stressed to glad so fast.
It made me feel so good,
Cause that smile was about me.
And it's even better
Because you started the conversation,
Something new you started yesterday.
Thanks for being my friend-
No one else makes me feel more special.
Cause if the nicest boy alive
Sees me as a friend,
Then I think maybe I'm not so bad.
I'm glad I make you smile,
Since it's the cutest thing in the world.
Do your eyes follow me
The way mine follow you?
I know sometimes you watch me,
I don't really mind, you know.
Since the day we started talking
My smile's almost always on.
And I see you smiling too
So let's make a pact to never be alone.
You think before you answer,
Which lets me know you hear.
Cause I'm the middle child so nobody cares to see
Just what it is I'm thinking
But you listen to me.
I'm glad we had that fire drill,
The one that gave me the courage to talk to you.
Cause you've become the best part of everyday
If I said I liked your eyes,
Would you smile?
If I said I liked your voice,
Would you smile?
If I told you your hair was fluffy,
Would you laugh?
Would you smile if I said a bad joke,
Or just stare at me?
I'd love to hear you laugh, by the way.
To hear you talk for hours.
You have the kind of voice perfect for reading.
It's very pretty.
Would this poem make you smile
If I shared it with you? Or maybe
You'd look away, embarrassed a loser found you cool?
In case you can't tell, I like you.
Today I spoke to the "Quiet Kid."
Found out he doesn't like his voice.
Said he should talk more cause I did.
To be honest, it sounds like an angel.
Not that I'd ever tell him.
I wonder tons about him,
Like if he likes the rain.
Maybe soon I'll ask him,
Unless he tells me to go away.
Quiet boy has fluffy hair,
So I'd really love to see
If I can get him to let me touch it,
Or if he'll get sick of me.
See, I'm the "Wild Kid"
Who all the students know,
But that's not really true, cause if they did
I'm a day dreamer,
My heads in the clouds,
But when I fall down,
Won't you be my solid ground,
I tend to block people out,
I'm hard to reach,
So when I put up another wall,
Just break them all,
I find it hard to laugh,
I'm not easy to crack,
But when you can tell it's been awhile,
Do anything to make me smile,
Many have tried,
Many have failed,
I'm hard to love,
Becasue you have to do all of the above,
A smile,
Easy to fake,
Bringing pain,
For others gain.
A tear,
Built over years,
Full of hurt,
And worldly fears.
A fight,
Just for show,
To make others know,
Of your might.
A death,
A reason to dress,
Acting a mess,
Not really affected.
beauty truth love
all but imperceptible
with eyes closed
ears plugged
heart tied up in knots
that’s why when Anne walks into the room
smiles at me with sheepish grin
eternal eyes crinkling cute
I focus on her glow her laughter her kiss
I am greedy wanting to take in her essence
my hand reaching out to touch her face
a blissful sigh escapes me
listening to her voice her words her song
I receive her as I give in
to love truth beauty
it was only a smile, nothing more.
it didn't make everything all right.
it didn't put food on the table or protect them when i couldn't.
it didn't open her eyes or heal her heart.
it didn't stop me from crying in the bathroom or hating everything.
it didn't make the pain disappear.
it was only a smile, a tiny thing.
so why did twitching a few muscles convince people i was fine?
Just because I smile
Dont think Im okay
Dont believe I am acutally happy
Dont try to make me more "Happy" than I already am.
Just because i smile
It douse not mean I'm really happy
It douse not mean I'm myslef
It douse not mean life is perfect.
Just because I smile
Still ask if Im okay
I cannot wait until life gets better
Just because I smile----- Please try to help me get through this stage.
I forgot the feeling of happiness.
I forgot what joy feels like.
I forgot the image of true smiles
I forgot how to be me.
