Click hereMy thoughts for a smile from you
My fortune to see you happy
My kingdom to hear you laugh
My life is yours
Am I too demanding?
Am I pushing you too much?
Should I let you rest,
As the sun let the moon during the day?
Should I go away?
Away from you,
Far from your smile,
This blinding light?
A penny for your thoughts they say.
I just want a smile
Not your soul
Take mine.
You’re not smiling
You’re hiding.
From me?
Why would you do that?
I bare the little I have left
Of sanity, of humanity
For your smile.
And yet it escapes me.
It haunts me in my nightmares
Slashing at me
Barking at me
Monster never meant to be.
My blood is pouring from my heart,
My screams escapes my lips
And yet you don’t smile
You just look at me.
Oh! Those ageless eyes
How much I despise them.
I fear them.
For even there, your smile is missing.
This cosmic joke is getting tiring.
I don’t want the world, I offered it to you.
I only want
A single smile …

duddle146over 17 years agoI'd walk a million miles ~ for one of your smiles...somehow I don't think he was referring to Mammy. cheerful and downright endearing.
LeBrozover 17 years agoKnow that feeling well
Getting that smile from her may be
A higher price than she's willing to pay;
They are fickle that way.
didijune48almost 18 years agoI know too well what you are talking about!
Isn't it the purpose of the writing? To have people recognise themselves, identify themselves? Well, it is done and well done. Thanks this was an excellent one!
