When I was in hard
You made me in comfort
When I thought myself low
You taught me to glow
Autumn, the present season
Changes of cadences and colors
It's a very charming time
When the anxiety overflows
When the tears start to fall
When the words start to fail
I see your face across the room
The anxiey recedes
The tears start to dry
The words return
I said 'No' that evening.
I told you not to do that.
Not to touch my breasts.
But you didn't listen that night, did you?
You asked me to 'calm down'.
You told me everyone did it anyway,
Come One
Come All
For I am not one to fall
For I am a clown
So dare not frown
So when I am around
we are given glasses at the beginning of childhood.
we are given infinite supply of:
laughter.
gifts.
smiles.
once the glasses break we are exposed to reality.
infinite supply of:
hatred.
I became grown-up
Much quicker than many
I was only 13
When they found a tumor in my belly
Technically it was in my ovary
Sadness reigned over her
3 years of pure sadness
Nothing, she was nothing
With one moment with one word
She is taken back
I am not usually talking.
I prefer to listen and breathe.
But when you spoke to me,
it was, in the least, shocking.
I am not usually smiling.
I don't really like interacting.
Every Day I Wake,
Their Smiles Keep My Heart From Ache,
Even Though My Life Quakes.
Coming home from a bad day
Trying to shake it off in the car
Pulling into the driveway
getting out, headed for the door.
Suddenly,
I hear
The best sound of my day
My nieces' laughter!
Stress.
It’s everywhere, a vulture waiting until I drop.
Waiting, waiting until the last brick is on my shoulders
and I crumble into nothingness.
Smile.
Smile More.
In the world we live in its easy to be put down
But my motivation comes from a well known man
Roman Atwood.
He lives by the phrase he created
Smile More.
It might just be the perfect day,
It could also be the worst.
But does it really, really matter?
Of happiness I constantly burst!
It comes from the warm cup of coffee
I miss the cloudy days
When the sky was nice and grey,
A sad smile upon my face.
What happened to the rain?
The sky has been to bright,
With the warm sunshine
Glowing upon the smiling faces
Liar is what I've become,
To spare the feelings of everyone.
I won't say a word,
And you won't notice.
I'll keep quiet and smile,
And all my lies are worthwhile.
I'm sick of turning to you for help,
On the shop
A female toy
Smiles
With me
I love
The toy
Smiles
Again
So I'm
Purchase
The toy
Just for
Smiles
Now
The toy
Smiles
My home
My life is in shambles.
Now I know how the cookie crumbles.
Never have I ever been in so much trouble.
But now so burst is my bubble.
My worst fear led to my jubilation,
There are a few things you should know,
About me and my life,
And what I've learned to not show.
You don't know what I feel,
I keep it well hidden,
But maybe I shouldn't,
I was riddled with anxiety on the fist day,
Unsure of who to speak to, or what to say.
I was afraid of the world, and the people around,
Unsure of my place, I was lost, afraid to be found.
The blood rushed through him
As she spoke of what had happened to her
He loved her so
Composing a plan of what to do
Behind every smile,
You know that there is some sadness.
The sadness that we mask
With forced laughter,
With excuses for the tearing eyes.
It is simply much more simple to smile,
life and all its colorful catastrophes
i walk head down searching for a penny for my entity
i walk head up searching salvation for my soul
a sudden crash
loud and clashing
people running
they say a picture is worth a thousand words
if that is true, then your smile is worth an infinite amount
more than the stars that gleam in the night, like a beacon for the moon
your smile is my light.
Today was different,
I didn’t feel like I was drowning
In a sea of my own tears.
The cold grip of shackles
That encompassed me
No longer bound me
To regret or remorse.
Smile, smile,
a world of smiles.
When you haven't seen your own in a while,
look around and you will see,
smile, smile,
a world of smiles.
Smiles are flighty creatures
they come and go in an instant
like your train of thought when you lose it
or that shooting star you wish would stay forever
Warm Fire, Dark atmosphere, Cold Wind
Bright Flames. Amber Logs, Cold Wind
Flickering Blaze, Inviting Company, Cold Wind
Warm Smiles. Dark Faces, Cold Wind
Who can resist
the charm of little girls?
With their sweet smiles,
their frivolous curls.
Faces so young
and innocent.
Sweet dispositions
almost heaven-sent.
Little girls,
I, we all wear masks
A layer of fakeness to supress the emotion of our true selves
We wear these smiles everyday, hoping no one sees through us
It means waking up late,
no pace to the day and watching the sun race on,
its cold floors, warm breakfasts, snowflakes, and skates.
It means following the train tracks,
ending up in the same place,
What if smiles were traded like currency?
Service with a smile is a requisite
Not a nicety
Government bailouts
Would nevermore distribute unevenly
Vibes are consistent
Zeal is flourishing
A dash of joy,
A pinch of smile,
Remove all bad memories,
Throwing away things all vile...
Stir in the fun,
Chop up and mix in every great time,
Pour into soul and body,
I wasn't prepared for this
I wasn't prepared to have to grow up so fast
Being 18 and not even knowing how to drive has taken a toll on me
Being 18 and not even knowing how to be confident and independent has angered me
Stuck inside a room of lies,
I am pinned with angry flies,
The stench of equivocators in full bloom,
If I could do anything,
I swear i'd have the world changing.
i'd make everyone's lives better,
create world peace and end hunger.
Cure cancer, end abuse-
keep someone from hanging a noose.
Cameras are flashing
Smiles are from ear-to-ear
Heart rates increase
Tears shed down one's face
The sounds of the applause send waves in one's ear
Class of 2014
The day finally came.
To change, alter, modifyIf I had the power to revolutionize,Every stroke of the brush placed in my right handwould ever so gracefully trace my vision.
don't you wake up some days & wander..
just wander and wonder..
"Where am I going?"
"What am I going to do?"
& its amazing, too..
We inherited our fathers hatred
letting his words tattoo into our brains
and flow onto our tongues
every time we were bombarded with something new
these words fell from our lips
It is work all day
and endure sleepless nights.
Uncertainty and worry
consume his mind.
His hope begins to dwindle
as its strength becomes weak
and then one day
life is no longer bleak.
Is it innapropriate to say
I love you,
too much PDA?
Is it innapropriate to hug,
even after a bad day?
I thought kindness was key
and killing a sin
but in this backwards place
Smiles are a responseA signAn expressionAn emotion
An emotion that lastsThat shows a changed dayThat changes someone else’s dayThat brings joy
I love you,
so much stuffed in three little words;
how much you mean to me
can’t be expressed, in such an overused phrase.
You’re my lover and my healer;
my listener and my sense of reason.
Excitedly waking up in the morning of dancing, white, snowflakes,Young faces bright and aglow at the sight of silver and gold bows,The rays of golden sun in a brilliant sunrise.
As the ocean draws in from a hard days work I stop and think of the ongoing state of things. The sun's rays strech out from the horizon giving the sky a firework of explosion. What has my life become? Where is it leading me?
Our eyes can see many things. The world filled with many human beings. I can run hundreds of miles Just to see you smile.
Good times and bad times, all sand in a fist
People you love soon be gone like a mist
Your wings will be broken, then mended to fly
Count every smile, not tear that you cry
A smile can mean anything
With much to smile for
A joke, relief, a hug, perhaps
Joy living ever more
