The false smile
of a sometime friend
Just pretend
Glittering eyes
Be careful not to
over-analyse
A breathless kiss
A broken game is all
there this
And how you beamed
while smashing all my
hopeless dreams
A soul apart
Behind your smile’s a
place to start
Frozen in time
a perfect moment
lost in rhyme
Awash with pain
I know it never
comes again
In just a while
all I’ll remember
is your smile

Agonizing and brilliant!
Thank you!! 🙂
I’ve had “relationships” like this. It was like a drug I couldn’t quit although I knew it could destroy me. You tell the brutal truth beautifully.
Thanks so much!! 🙂 🙂
Lovely in its simplicity.
Thank you!! 🙂 🙂
How sad! One cannot be sure with such a smile. Wonderful lines Helen!
