"What, do you really think I was
strong enough to handle it?
If you did, then sweetie, you
don't know me at all.
These "smiles" are fake.
Just another lie people bought.
You will never know the disaster
that's behind them." -Anonymous


I step on solid ice.

CRACK!

Looking down,
I see a white line.

I step forward more.
That's all I have left to do.

More white lines,
seeming to be in a pattern.
More ear-splinting 'cracks'!

The ice I walk on is slowly
falling beneath my feet..

I wrote this poem when I was in a very depressed state of mind..
Over time I will become strong again.
