The teardrops run down,
And fall of her nose,
She cries in dark corners,
Where nobody goes
You can follow the tracks,
From her eyes to her chin,
Years upon years,
Of letting them win,
And her eyes tell a story of anger and pain,
You think that she's happy,
But look again,
Her smile is now painted,
She's a master of disguise,
But you can see it all,
Just look into her eyes.
l looked at a picture of us
You had the most breathtaking smile
What happened to the little girl
that dreamed the impossible
That would hide behind mum
when she was shy
You don't smile much anymore
and the things that do make you smile
aren't who you really are
I miss that little girl
that believed in herself
that thought she could do anything
l'm sorry that I couldn't protect you
From a world that broke your heart
I just want to see you
smile like you used to
the only
thing more
incredible
than your smile,
is when you
smile at me
I think it had something to do with the way she smiled
She often did so when reading a book, or looking at a friends text
She would look around, hoping no one caught her in the act
I, however, have always been there
I think it had something to do with the way she laughed
She would throw her head back, having absolutely no cares in the world
Her whole body would darken like a paler shade of red
I have always laughed with her mind
I think it had something to do with her dark blue hair
Her confidence grew as her hair became much like the deep ocean tides
She began to hold her head up higher to the high sky
These changes I noticed the most
I think that until now, you thought this was a love poem
here we go again
my heart shattering again
but I just don't seem to care
A little laugh
A little smile
that'll keep them off my back
for a while.
there isn't a day
where I wouldn't like to say
maybe today I wouldn't feel this way
maybe....
No it's just me
you see
and my insecurities.
I'm just procrastinating
nothing new
She smiled and laughed to numb her pain
But just like all medicine
It wore off eventually
Crying is a weakness.
Every tear which slides down my face is a traitor.
I feel numb-no i feel angry,
Everyday, every single damned day is a struggle.
A struggle to keep up the act.
Each smile holds a thousand secrets.
My smile holds memories.
Harsh words,
Fearful actions,
Broken hearts.
The only thing left of the betrayers is a runny nose-
That, however, is on the outside.
Inside a battle rages on...
And chaos has the upper hand.
With tears In her eyes she smiled in the mirror
You're a strong one, you fell but got up
Although right now
I don't know how much longer you can keep it up
And her smile dies down while she holds the blade to her wrist
I see you watch her now,
It used to be me but once again it's her.
Shes noticed too but tells me she doesn't want you,
I know your pure heart,
If she ever gets to know you-
I'll be the supportive friend,
We were never meant to be,
Be happy, that's your plan.
Fix her heart, I'll fix my own.
Don't worry about me,
I'll always have a smile on my face, even when I'm too tired.
Don't look me in the eye though or else I might cry.
His eyes held a million emotions, a lot of love.
His hair was a beautiful soft wavy bunch
His smile brightened up a room
But he rarley let that show
He was a gem that tried to blend
And for a moment, he succeeded
His stare was a glare, hard and cold like winters nights
But his eyes held, wanting.
Wanting of love, wanting of
happiness, wanting of a family.
So, I hope one day we reunite
For hopeless it may beI'll be here with an open heart
You forgot
to remove
his hands
still stroking
your breasts
in slow circles
like gulls,
white bellies tight,
as you
so naked
tried to light
a smile.
I saw a black girl once,
As black as winter's night;
Till through her parted lips
There came a flood of light;
It was the milky way
Across her face so black:
Her two lips closed again,
And night came back.
I see a maiden now,
Fair as a summer's day;
Yet through her parted lips
I see the milky way;
It makes the broad daylight
In summer time look black:
Her two lips close again,
And night comes back.
