The Story of a Broken Smile

by .::Lovely*Letdown::.   Apr 17, 2006


Another day goes by...
Here comes those endless tears I cry.
So slide off this fatal mask I wear...
And see what lies beneath the moonlit glare.
Secrets were kept, and words were shared...
The words kept inside were instantly smeared...
I'll tell you a story about a broken heart.
You'll find out the pain you put me through right from the start.
And during this time please look in my eyes...
And tell me that you really do realize
What my broken smile signifies.
Does it tell you the truth about a girl
Who had to pretend she was fine...
And everyday had to act like a mime?
All that was missing was the white paint on her face...
She constantly felt out of place.
In the story, her prince charming came.
He told her he loved her and she felt the same.
The paint came off...but the mask stayed on.
The prince broke her heart, and she couldn't move on.
She still hasn't to this day...and she probably never will.
So everyday she goes and sits on a hill...
Wishing to be far, far away...
In a fairytale forever and always.
But then reality sets in and she's back to her story...
With no kisses and hugs...
No beauty or glory.
And this story...it has no happy ending...
Just the memory of a shadowed romance and too much pretending.
So i hope you enjoyed it because it's all you get.
And I hope you also know that i will NEVER forget.

    Wow, you have really great talent, especially for being 14! I remember that's when I started writing.....anyway, this is an absolutely wonderful poem, but I'm sorry you've already had to experience the pain of a broken heart. Broken hearts never fully heal, but you'll find your "real" prince charming someday, trust me.

    Thanks for your touching comment on my poem "I Miss You"...I really enjoyed it and it started my day off in a positive way. I appreciate your time and energy you used to r/r/c!

    And yeah, like I said...this is an AmAzInG poem! 5/5
