A full heart it once was,
Now it's a little bruised
It's okay though, really
Happy days they used to be,
Now they're a little grey
Genuine smiles we used to give,
Now they're a little fake
It's okay though, really
Tear dropping laughs we used to crack,
Now they're a little forced
Now here we are,
Eye to eye
What do I say?
Do I say I love you? I hate you? Or how was your day?
I'm lost for words, as you have been before
But now this is different
Me you chose to ignore
So I give my small fake smile, and you do the same
Then we break eye contact and walk separate ways

A faded love, such a bittersweet thing. Bravo.
Thank you. It's kind of a theme I've got going here, I've come to realize. But not all my poems will be like this, I guarantee.
Good. Variety is spicy.
The end of a relationship that just fades away can be a more difficult experience than one that ends abruptly, can't it? Either way it hurts, even if in the long run it's for the best. Appreciated your poem, Brie.
I'm glad you liked it!
Brie, I really, really like your poem (repetition of really done on purpose!), there is so much written between the lines. If the age given in your bio is correct, I would say you write extremely well for your age. And I do like that last line. It makes it final, no more guessing.
Thank you! I've been writing for years now, and I'm glad I found this place! I'm happy you enjoyed my poem, feel free to read my previous ones if you want! I appreciate your comment very much.
