I gave you my all;
in return you gave me shame.
What did I expect from someone who only understands pain?

Your soul is dark and twisted.
Touched by the devil itself.

Your darkness goes beyond those charming brown eyes.
And beyond that beautiful smile which only tells lies.

I'm scarred.
But you don't care,
you never will.

"You gave me the best years of my life", he says.

"You gave me the worst".

I made a mistake
I meant to be perfect

But I colored outside the lines
On purpose

I crossed the line
That meant to keep the lines inside

Because I'm not supposed to do it

She is here
A miraculous gift for her family to treasure and adore
Challenging to have her join the party as her Daddy would say at this time in our world
It is a testament of just how much her parents love each other
They love you more than any poet could express even your Aunt
You shine unlike any other
Uncut and beautiful with a quality and luster all your own
May the world welcome your arrival and be gentler,kinder, and more caring for you.
As your begin your story filled with sunshine, warmth and glory
May good health and joy surround you every moment
Welcome to the world, Little Gem.

SMILE

She smiled to hide the sorrow behind her eyes
The tears that never got to roll down her pale chubby cheeks, if they ever did she said they were tears of joy
The truth behind them, hidden
Like a predator in camouflage

It was easy to find
That her smile was just a cover
That hid all her wounds
But none dared to look more into it
None cared for they all fell for her silly act
The smile that hid her pain

The smile that hid her agony
Behind it she hid herself
Now when all the pain is gone
Her face no more twitches to smile
Unable to share her joy and happiness
Unable to hear the sound of her laughter

She goes back to being sad all over again.
Firstly I know it's very long. The tittle itself is smile but the poem is really sad. Trust me I wanted to write something happy but couldn't. Let me know what u guys think about it.

A severe pain
arousing from within
impossible for the
eyes to see;
eating up the soul,
weakening the bones,
poisoning the heart-
slowly, till it beats no more.
A loud scream
out of the lungs
to ease the agony
that dwells within;
but it's no use,
as you can't stop the
dead leaves from falling off
its branches,
or the upper eye lid 
from kissing the lower one; 
thus, you can't fight
nor defeat love when she
comes for you.
One can only pray nd' hope
to find perfect serenity with love
and not to be
broken and shattered
into irreparable pieces
by her painful words and
unpredictable actions

this silence of love is flawless
no interfering words necessary deemed,
sound without sound, no entry crack visible,
a great plain, a continental ocean, no horizon given,
this then the perfect diamond of humankind,
the glance cross a room, the grazing ******* upon a cheek,
the succinct serenity of perfect, this I grant you

Write me in as I would of you
And stumbling onward
We walk

Converse with me as the trees speak to trees
And our whispers will grow in full
As we talk
Sprained Ankle is pretty underrated

Just imagine,
a world where all the hate
was replaced with love,
where absolute empathy
was inherent in all of us
where we comforted
the lost,
the broken,
the lonely,
where we realized
the universal connections.
Just imagine.
If we all shared pain...

my heart aches.
what could have been?
memories flood.
who would I be?
tears fall.
why did I go?
hiraeth: a homesickness for a home that you cannot return to; the nostalgia, the yearning, the grief for the lost places of your past
