Fading Smile

Contributed by pixie on Tuesday, 9th November 2004 @ 01:05:55 PM in AEST
Topic: EmotionalPoetry



My smile is fading so fast,
Please for once let it last,
Let me be happy for a little while,
Let me at least get to enjoy my smile.

But it gets ripped away stolen from me,
All I ask is to be able to feel free,
My face has forgotten the happy times,
My life is filled with all sorts of grime.

I try to hold onto it with both my hands,
But never up to my hurt can it stand,
All I ever wish for upon my little star,
Is that this time my smile will go so far.

But it never, ever seems to stay,
Something always chases it away,
Frightens it off never for it to return,
I am left empty & feeling the burn.

I would love to smile from ear to ear,
But smile fades when pain comes too near,
It slips through my hands I can’t keep a hold,
Down the blue river my smiles have been sold.

wow .. great expression in this poem.. I totally understand this feeling.. You feel like you are happy but it goes away or is taken away.. sometimes you realize later on that what you thought made you happy really wasn't right and your glad it didn't last .. so think of the better side of it .. there is always hope

Peace and hope

Sensational, that was terrific. What an absaloute treasure. Yes I think I enjoyed. It was beautiful. Each verse swept me away to the next one. And what a perfect title you choose. A+ Girl, its a winner.

What an enjoyable read. Keep them coming.
