Friend's Disappointment!
January 7, 2011
Not a smile or a laugh
I give you my tears
It is my pain lying in my broken heart
It promises weakness of a young girl
like a bird attacked by a lion.
Here.
It will break your heart
like the death of a friend
it will make your happiness
turn into grief.
I am trying to be strong
Not a rainbow or sunshine.
I will give you a cloudy day.
Its darkness will make you cry,
sadness and hurt
as I am,
for as long as I have been.
Take it.
Its bad days turn into a fake smile,
If you like.
Penetrating.
Its fake smile will attach to your face,
stay in your heart.

Wow. I love this. It's especially good because you didn't stick on a happy ending. In fact, you kind of just told the person that you know what it's like I guess. I like the way you phrased the last stanza, I couldn't have said it better myself. Not that I'm, like, professional or anything--not even close! But you get your point down and connect with--well--me, and you completely understand what you're talking about. I can tell from all your work that you like weather: just a comment. C:
