I cried you cried
I laughed you laughed
I hurt you hurt
I smiled you smile
----------------------
I cry you seem to laugh
I don’t laugh anymore
I hurt you smile
I don’t smile anymore.

This is very direct. It is very simple. I wrote this a long time ago so I dont remember what was going through my mind at the time.
