Sometimes: A Poem
My smile shows I’m happy
You fell for it, right?
Look no further than my lips
For inside the demons fight.
My laugh shows I’m happy
You laughed along, too.
Music to your ears
but to me, it’s out of tune.
My wit shows I’m happy
Just me and my jokester ways.
Wacky character impersonations
Get me by, most days.
My smile shows I’m happy.
My laugh shows I’m happy.
My wit shows I’m happy.
Sometimes it isn’t so.
Sometimes my heart says no.
Sometimes full of woe.
Sometimes...

It's amazing how deceiving a smile can be! Great poem! x
Love it! You are an amazing writer.
Loved this poem,indepth meaning.Voted up, beautiful.
Voted up and awesome. There is always some doubt in love until we are really sure.
Full of emotion. Love the rhythm. And I can so relate to how that feels. I love your sharpie pic, too, and the caption underneath, which is a poem in itself. Great piece of work! Many votes and sharing!
Rife with emotion--really well done! And I love the artwork--
Ouch - you are such a good writer - I hurt when I read the pain through your words and picture.

Looks can be deceptive! This quote has whole new perspective with the pain- smeared poem you have here.... all these lines... so simple yet so painful... so morose...
Sad but beautiful!
