Wasted Fake Smiles

by Wasted Fake Smiles   Feb 1, 2007


I just can't take this pain. It's too much to bare,
I feel that I just don't belong anywhere.
I feel alone. Just when I need someone so much,
Hardly anyone even knows, there's no gentle touch.

These wasted fake smiles have done me in again,
I'm losing everything I have, including my friends.
I'm losing all the happiness I once cherished in my heart,
But I guess in life, you cannot simply press restart.

It seems that everyone is just moving further away,
Tomorrow they might not recognize me, or care what I say.
Yesterday is gone; we can't live on memories,
I just wish I could take a break, but time won't freeze.

These wasted fake smiles keep doing me in,
I keep trying to make it, but where to begin?
There's so much wrong...so much I can't handle,
The flame of pain is burning away my life's candle.

There's nothing in the world I have to live for anymore,
I don't think anyone would care if they'd see me nevermore.
No one cares that I am hurting, all they can see if my shield,
But right now I'm as volnurable as a soldier in an open war field.

These wasted fake smiles have done me in again,
I've lost everything I have, including my 'friends'.
If only people could see around the wall I put up to hide,
Maybe, just maybe, someone could see through my lies.

~*Who Cares?*~
i absolutely love the words 'wasted fake smiles'. that is what ive been wanting to name my not yet existant band for like..years. i decided to use it as a title. please r/r/c.

    I loved this, it's one of my favourites of your's.

    But right now I'm as volnurable as a soldier in an open war field.

    I think you meant vulnerable there.

    Apart from that tiny error, there's really nothing bad I have to say about this poem, you outdid yourself.

    Wow.. awesome.

    did u notice ur about to hit 200 poems? ;)

    :P i resorted to a makeover before i hit middle school: turn from total goth into... well... hmm... ME!

    :\ how'd u break? im sorry about that :\ as sad at it may seem, you may not find that restart button in thin air... but it's there. every day is a chance to turn over a new leaf!

    this myt seem weird, but it's nice:

    this entire week, i've been writing notes to myself. they usually go like this:

    from: me
    to: me

    Hi! What's up? Just in case you're having a bummer of a day, I want you to know that I will never betray you! You are nice, sweet, caring, and funny! Not to mention smart and pretty... don't let people get you down! And for God's sake, have some faith in yourself! You are an awesome person! You've got guts!

    ~hehe... they make me feel better when my day seems to suck~

    oh... and here's a message for someone...

    From: JR
    To: WC

    Hey, what's up? Something bad? Try not to get down... no guy can make up for the love you have to give yourself! I know that 'he' might, but a lot of those 'he's' arent in the perfect relationship w/ u. Think of it this way: you guys had many wonderful memories!!

    and... why should you not feel bad about yourself? Your sense of humor is fresh; a lot better than the 'yo mama' jokes :) and you're very considerate... along with being an excellent writer!

    ~Dreams are the hopes you search for every night... and hopes are the dreams you take with you through the day...~

    ~Bye,
