It seems I/'/m not worthwhile
Maybe I would be more fun
If I would only smile

Maybe I could change my style
Tho I/'/m not a cheerful son
But with all my craft and guile
I could make you think I/'/m one

Maybe I can make this fun
And go the extra mile
Skills and graces overdone
And sell them with a smile

I could always force a smile
As I face the social gun
A bright one made from my denial
Oh, what social fun!!

Depression hidden from the sun
And building all the while
Until I almost come undone
But I/'/m okay, so smile

Maybe that may last a while
Or it may soon be done
If I were to force a smile
I fear that would fool none

But I/'/ll say this and then I/'/ll run
Most times I don/'/t want to smile
But tell me, if I forced one,
Would I be worth your while? [comments] => 2 [counter] => 162 [topic] => 43 [informant] => nightwolf [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => oops )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
