The end of a smile

by Rachel   Sep 11, 2003


Why is life so lonely?
And why am I so scared?
There it goes.. my life again,
I thought you might have cared.
Yes, you said, I understand,
Yes, you said, I know,
Yes, you said with a glint in your eye,
yes, she is a hoe.
Maybe life would be less complicated,
If I just shut up and wait.
Maybe I should do that,
And hold in all this hate.
Or maybe you should stop,
Stop and look at me,
and maybe you should realize,
that I just want to be happy.
I'm sick of all the whispers,
and I'm sick of all the shouts.
I'm sick of the long, long silences,
and the endless, tedious bouts.
All I wanted was a look,
A smile, a laugh, a word.
That showed you knew, you knew it all,
that it wasn't that absurd.
I don't know if you know you hurt me,
I don't know if you even care.
All I know is I was left alone,
When you really should have been there...
