Your smile

Another stupid poem

I see your angelic smile,
It fills my heart with sorrow
I've been crying for a while,
But I wish you a good morrow.
Hoplessly you made me cry
And senselessly you've made me rejoice
So, do go on, go ahead and try
But no, my dear, I don't have a choice
I put on this fake smile of mine
And pretend I share your happiness
Even though you say without a sign,
'I beg for your forgiveness'
I hate it when I need to be true,
But sadly, I will never forgive you...

Love it!
Here's one back at ya!


Smile…

Didn’t Agamemnon find his way home after all his trials?
But I am too plain
I am too much in the sun, shining too bright on my heart.
“All is fair in love and war”; love AND war not love OR war.
And now I must surrender to any passing peasant with a knife.
I have been decimated past my capacity to continue.

She said she had a gift for me and left it at my door.
I opened wide and pulled it in, beauty incarnate.
Little did I know that she studied love and war under the ancient Greeks.
Trojans beware.
Now nothing means anything, and everything, nothing.
In return for her gift, I gave her my soul.
Now that she’s gone, when do I get it back?

Just…

Smile (so others don’t see the torment)
Smile (so others don’t ask)
Smile (so life goes on)
(who cares if it’s not my smile?)

Smile…

Ah.. being mature, are we? I like this poem very much. You show shades of being a very talented poet in this poem. One of the signs being I didn't know this poem rhymed till I took a second look at it. It flowed that well! Really natural rhyme and rhythm. Very good job.
