But I really wish
I could see you smile. :)To See You Smile9 months ago in Free Verse

SmileDo you know
What you do to me?
You make me smile
Every time you look at me.
We laugh and joke
You know just what to say
But I hope you know
You make me feel this way.
I get all these silly butterflies
And I can't hardly
Look you in the eyes.
When you call me beautiful
I feel so,
You make me blush
And you always know
And even though
I've been sad for quite a while,
You always know
How to make me smile.Smile6 years ago in Free Verse

SmileI once wrote "I believe in innocence, because it makes me smile, and I hope to see it so very soon, on the face of my child."

My hope, my wish, was granted, fulfilled in a way that makes me smile even more, everyday.

It astonishes me that no matter how bad I feel, Taylor's smile completely turns my day around, I simply cannot help but smile back at her when she smiles at me.

And that got me to thinking. Why is it so hard for us to smile? Smiling is an automatic reflex, it's built into us from the day we are born.

The answer is simple, we don't smile because we choose not to.

Sounds horrible, right? That's because it is. So many of us areSmile4 years ago in Philosophical

Bleh. It was going to be one of those unusually long days, I could already tell. I woke up feeling like the worst piece of garbage that couldn't even make it in the can. And I'm almost positive I have bags under my eyes but I'm too tired to even check. It was just going to be that kind of day.

When I woke up I noticed there was a white patch all taped up on the inside of my right shin. I can't really remember what happened last night but I'm going to take a wild guess that it didn't go exactly as I planned. In caSmile2 years ago in Flash Fiction & Vignettes

Fake SmileGreeted by her vibrant cheer,
The happy girl that's always here
Has a very grim secret, I fear;
Her friendly smile is fake.
She has a heart that's big in size,
But her smile does not reach her eyes.
She tries to fool us with her lies,
Because her warm smile is fake.
It's become a daily task
To hide behind a grinning mask.
Oh my dear, I have to ask,
Why is your smile fake?
She's a girl that's pure of heart,
And she's been like that from the very start,
But her mind and soul have been torn apart,
Making her loving smile fake.
My little dear, I see the truth;
Countless others have tarnished your youth.
You're broken, my dear, aFake Smile2 weeks ago in Free Verse

Watching you smile from afar...
You don't even know who you are.
You don't think through,
The things you say.
Your mind is peculiar,
in every way.

How do you smile,
Through all of your fear?
How do you live,
When life isn't clear?
How do you love him,
When he doesn't stay?
When I wish to see you,
everyday...

Why do you laugh,
When life gets hard?
Why do still wish,
On broken stars?

You know that love's far away,
Still you try,
With me in the way.Smile.2 years ago in Free Verse

Mask It With a SmileGrin.
No, not that big.
Show a few teeth...
There, that's more like it.
Go wash your face,
That's better.
Your cheeks are less flushed,
So rejoin your friends.
Someone just told a joke,
Laugh along.
Let the sparkle reach your eyes,
Now no one'll notice they're red and puffy.
"Hey, how are you?"
Tell them you're good
and re-direct the question to them.
You're too quiet,
and your mind is wandering...
Join the conversation.

SmileSmile;
It can only get better from here
You've reached rock bottom,
You can't be forced down anymore.

Smile;
You've made it this far.
You may be broken and bleeding,
But you're not going to be for too much longer,
{You're a survivor}

Smile;
You're no longer all alone.
There's people here now,
They'll try to help you, help yourself.
{You're the only one who can save you}

Smile;
Someone heard your pleas,
You've called out,
Now you're going to get the tools you need,
To lift yourself back up.

I know you've cried tears beyond number,
I know that you never let them show.

Learning to Smile

THE CUTIE MARK POEMS
– Ponies with Amorphis [Click here for the accompanying song] Learning to Smile

I was a child of stones
A daughter of the rock farmers
No joy was known there
But gloom and endless working

Under the hot, blazing sun
The barren fields, all without green
Granites were our flowers
Our grass made of sand and gravel

I breathed the choking air on the wordless world
I walked on soil bare of seeds…

In a poor family among rocks
A child was born with a bright mane
Pink coat in colorless home
Such a punchline in a grey world

Gathered rocks in silence
Aching hooves our pay for a hard work
Dust on my eyes Learning to Smile10 months ago in Songs & Lyrics

RussiaXReader - With a SmileIt had started out like any other day. You went to go visit your best friends, Toris, Raivis, and Eduard. But you had always wondered why you could only come over in the afternoons, around 7:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m.
"Why always so late?" you wondered out loud. Oh well. There probably working for their boss, Ivan. You didn't want to ask them why, possibly making them feel bad for something that wasn't their fault.
You trudged through the snow, shoving your hands under you arm pits. It was easy below 30 degrees. You knew you were almost at the house, you could even see it coming it into view.
You finally reached the doorRussiaXReader - With a Smile1 year ago in Settings

SmileThe sadness in your eyes is nothing new to me
I can't seem to do anything right
I can't seem to make you smile from your heart
I don't want you to be unhappy
Those are my real thoughts as I tell you to leave and never come back

The leaves outside move with the rhythm of the wind
And the birds that sing early in the morning
Have become quiet and hide away from the world

The rain falls and I watch you leave for the last time
I know you will never come back to me
But I understand, it's all my fault
You put up with me for so long
It wouldn't be long
And I screwed up again

For all the things I have put you through
For all the times Smile3 years ago in Free Verse

Smile In My Sleep

You can't see me
You can't tell me who I want to be
What can I do to
Convince you
That I am all you'll ever need?
And I start to understand
And I smile in my sleep

Death watcher
Dream taker
Stone believer
Heart breaker

I watch you Mr. Death
I know what you want
Dying is you're greatest
Torture, you taunt
Me with life
I smile knowing
You can't get me this time

So forgive the misgivings
I've tried so hard to find you
I even see you in my dreams
You're face turned blurry and hued
And I waved goodbye to Mr. Death
As I breathed my last breath

When I'm lying in my bed,
When I wake up in the morning,
When I go to sleep at night,
I smile.

When I hear your voice,
When I feel your touch,
When I see your sweet face,
I smile.

When you hold me close,
When you say my name,
When you run your fingers through my hair,
I smile.

Every thing you do,
Every time we are together,
Every time I think of what we got,

AlfredxReader: Morning SmileYou sat quietly in your normal spot in the morning, waiting for your friends to join you. As always, you arrived to school early to steal sometime alone with your music. It was a peaceful time you enjoyed having. A song you adore came on, and you found your self swaying to the beat. You let your eyelids flutter shut as it progressed.

When the song ended, you opened your eyes to find a pair of bright blue eyes staring straight into your (e/c) ones. Heat rushed to your face but you kept you cool as you stared back at the boy who was creeping on you. His eyes were a dazzling shade of blue and his hair was blindingly blonde in contrast to his daAlfredxReader: Morning Smile2 years ago in Short Stories

"H-huh? Yeah," she replies. I can hear her sniffing quietly. I know she's trying to hide it, but I'm her moirail--I notice everything.

"Nepeta, I'm starting to get worried about you."

"Equius, you have nothing to worry about." I know she's lying.

One last time,
Just for me.

Where did it go,
It was so perfect…

It brightened up,
Everyone's day,
Especially mine.

It was so mocking,
So beautiful,
But now it's gone.

What made that smile,
Be replaced with a grim scowl?

"Why isn't this lamp working?" You grumbled as you fiddled with the light switch.

"Maybe it's because it isn't plugged in." Arthur chuckled. Your eyes ran down the cord to find that the end was not plugged into the wall outlet.

"Well that would explain a lot..." You mumbled and bent over to plug in the lamp.

A SmileI'm waiting terrified for the last decision,
You gently touch the knife,
My heart is pounding, waiting for the lethal incision,
I almost see the blade shedding the liquid of life,
I hear myself choking with my own blood,
The sound of the knife rending my flesh - a deafening thud.

But your hand goes further; over the axe it leans,
Shining ruthless under your fingers,
I'm about to die, by all means,
A sick suspense lingers,
I almost hear the sound of my breaking bones,
The gushing blood, the moans,
But no; your hand, well, further it goes.

"A gun? "
With it easily it will be done,
Infix the cold metal and let me bleed to death,
