When the sunshine glares through a crack in the blind
Draw open the ******* and look upon mankind.
Its there.

Josh Morter Apr 2013

From a distance her beauty shone like the embers of a fire
each curve of her face,
each strand of her hair,
glowing and glistening with a warmth incomparable to anything else.

Her eyes; mysterious,
giving off a twinkle that only a hidden gem buried in the dust could exude.
Powerful.
Bright,
but beautiful even though encased by filth.

Moving closer her beauty shone brighter.
The embers of her fire
igniting and setting flame to something deep within.
So deep it had never been graced by such warmth and beauty.
She had lit a fire in my heart.

The depth of a smile

Crack a smile, pucker your lips, show us a grin and be proud of it.
Let the world know you can smile like the rest
Let yourself show that you've not down trodden or depressed
But if you can't make it true

just fake a smile so as not to reveal
the depths of your despair
just pucker up and blow a kiss to someone whose not there.

Let others believe you're happy, so no questions here are asked
Hide your sorrow behind a jilted expression, which not long on your face shall last.
Emotions needent be obvious to every;
Tom, **** and Harry.
But if a bunch do show up laugh as if your merry.
Laugh not bitterly as to show the sordid feelings held below.

just fake a smile so as not to reveal
the depths of your despair
just pucker up and blow a kiss to someone whose not there.

Lie with your face.
Lie with your eyes.
Put those morbid thoughts behind a disguise.
Lie with your words, lie through your teeth,
never reveal what lies beneath.
For if they ponder to say
"you don't look so well are you sure you're okay..."

Just nod with your head and lie with your smile
then they won't ask you again.
Well not for a while.
Then let yourself sink far far away
down to where the root of the troubles resides day to day.
Hidden, masked, disguised in the dark, shattered in pieces the remains of your heart.

Heartbroken from heartbreak thats the thing the heart can't take
But it's a hard thing to explain, as no one understands your pain.
It's personal to you after all, it is. your heart
but don't let anyone notice cause they too could tear it apart.

Tear it to pieces, break it some more.
So don't let any one know the score
hide your feelings, your emotions: Be smart.
don't let them know about your heart.

just fake a smile so as not to reveal
the depths of your despair
just pucker up and blow a kiss to someone whose not there

They're not there for a reason;
reason being they broke your heart
But to get away from this

crack a smile, pucker your lips, show us a grin and hide behind it.

Nobody can really read what your face is saying. Can they?

20W

The mundanity takes its toll
nothing to do whilst in this hole
Boredom ensues and fun departs
I hate this.

Thought I'd step up a notch and do a 20word poem.

steps were heard
they became distant
she had left me.
