Smiles and Laughs
Stupid Chosen
Always smiling
The world is at stake
Yet you joke away
But I see you—you think no one's looking
But I see you
You frown and hide your face in your hand
And one time I think I saw a tear
Glistening on your cheek
Like a crystal…
Crystal—I know you hate your crystal
It's only a constant reminder of your pending death
Along with your title;
If our journey fails
But, please, don't be sad
I know you think I hate you when I hit you and yell at you
But I don't
I just don't know how to handle you
You say things that hurt, but only in a superficial way
Deep down, you care
I know you care
About us all
Because I want to call you friend
I miss you when you're not around
And when I'm down
No one knows
But you
No one
But you
You see right through me
And you cheer me up like the good person you are
So I want to come to you and comfort you
When you're sad
But I don't know how
I'm afraid I'll only make it worse
I mean, I can't even comfort myself
How does one broken person help another?
My grandfather said,
"By being broken"
Maybe he was right
His logic is simple yet true
Maybe just to have another damaged soul,
Just knowing that they are with you
Helps
I want to help you when you are sad
But the question I have is—why?
Why?
Why do you hide yourself behind a wall
Of smiles and laughs
The smiles and laughs, I guiltily say, that make you my rock
When I feel like it's over
You're always there to pick me up
With smiles and laughs
And when you aren't smiling, I don't know what to do
My world turns upside down
I feel lost, to put it simply
And it hurts to see you hurting
I just hate to see you hurting
So, please, don't be sad
I want you to be happy
And although I'm too scared to tell you,
I want you to know that someone cares about you

Author's Note: Hey, everyone.It's been so long! This is something I found in one of my four Sheelos composition notebooks, and it's from November 10th of last year. Whoa, baby! Thanks for reading, if you did. You rock.
