A/N: Freeverse, huh? That's something I never thought I'd be writing. I was just musing over the next generation, as you do, and this is basically the offspring my muse. I love that word, muse. This is for don't. you. try. to. outweird. me. It's only due to the hordes of encouragement she's given me that I've finally plucked up the courage to write and post a freeverse. Thank you.

Oh yeh, and I don't own Roxanne. S'all JK Rowling.


Keep smiling

And don't let the world know that inside you're b r e a k i n g

You're the happy one

Right?

The one who pushes through e v e r y t h i n g

The one who {dances} in the rain?

The one who stops! to smell the flowers?

Well the rain's stopped falling now

Hasn't it?

And the flowers are wilting

I think?

And you stand there, amongst the wreck

Of ha/lf answered questions

And -false- little smiles

And you wonder who you are

Who am I?

And you don't think you're -fake-

No, you're just confused

[Sometimes] You want to be

And life's just so damn !confusing!

And your brain's just so damn !muddled!

And you're caught in between two/two worlds

You want to be grownup and special and strong

You want to make decisions

{Not mistakes}

But then again?

You want to be told 'Everything's gunna be okay, sweetie'

And you just want to be wrapped up

And carried home

And tucked into your bed at night

Well, you do need some protection

For when the walls finally come c r a s h i n g down

What walls?

And you're bruised and battered by the falling (downdowndown) fragments of your life

And you're still not sure if you feel

Because now you're {Vulnerable}

And it's everyone else who calls the shots

And it's everyone else's decision

They can take you

Or leave you

They can love you

Or hate you

But either way, it's still you

I think?


Please review. I'd love to know what you think.
