Change

A little thing I was worried about a little while ago.

 

Empty smiles

Hollow laughs

A fake attempt

At happiness.

When I alone

Hopelessness ensues

And I'm always crying

Not because I miss you

Not because I'm alone

Because every smile

You turn my way

Makes me feel alone.

You pretend you are okay

You pretend nothings wrong

But every time I talk to you

I only wish

Things could go back

To how they were before.

When we would walk hand and hand.

And when you smiled

Everything seemed alright

But now

I can feel it.

Something feels wrong

And there's nothing I can do.

I don't think I've EVER read one of your poems and ended it thinking anything else but "wow...that was..just..wow." Wren you are an amazing writer and a great girlfriend and an amazing person. So don't you ever think or tell yourself anything else girly. I love you. This is a really good poem.

It's not bad,Let the feelings out,sometimes they are better down on paper,it can let us move on.

it is good to get your feelings out... most poets feel through their writing. You did an awesome job.
