The smile that shines Is often the most forged, That shiny smile, the laughter lines
It hides a tormented soul Not wanting to burden, A careless girl that experience stole
Wanting desperately to let you in, But scared of the certainty That is pain & let down sure to win
All this time has built a substantial wall, Blocked the feelings like ear plugs to sound, Padded heart against the fall.
It is a smile that is painted on, I'm not ok, it wants to say Feeling like the duckling but never the swan
The eyes though......cannot hide How the heart aches, oh how it does Doesn't matter, who cares? the brain replied.

WELCOME SARAH ~ YOU WILL FIND MPS A VERY EMPATHETIC SITE ~ many of us have been where you are emotionally. Thanks for your First Poem. I love the fragmented style ~ it reflects your broken heart ! The smile on the face of a MAN is all too often the smile of a broken hearted CLOWN ! Thinking of you ~ Every Blessing for the FUTURE ~ Yours BRIAN
Thank you so much, your very kind. Thank you for your warm welcome.
a broken format, which I have not seen before. But gives a reflection of how the author feels.
Nicely written
Michael 🙂
