His Smile (Poem), by YourEyesMyWords Subscribe to rss feed for YourEyesMyWords

Smile at the camera,
a familiar face.
i cannot put my finger on it,
but I've seen you before.

You have the same face,
eyes,
and shape
of someone i use to know.

Yet then when i think back,
i think back on him...
that boy i once loved,
but now he's gone and i'm lost.

i haven't thought of him since.
and then
        you
           smiled...

And my whole world
                  came
                      apart...
Memories coming...
                  Back 
                      and
                         forth...
You're there,
but you won't be.
because he left me.
i know you will too.

I remember that boy.
he was the one who flirted with me
and turned me on,
when his girlfriend wasn't looking.

with him,
i felt...
         lost
             ashamed
                    abandoned
                             forgotten
                                      someone else
                                not me
                            gone
                      stupid
          not worth it
      used
  fake

-                                             Dead...

he only spoke lies,
with his sparkling brown eyes.
he had some sort of a smile,
that made me do the same.

but now this guy,
I've been friends with now.
has the same smile,
as him.

i want to still hang out,
and act cool with him.
but with this familiar smile,
there's something telling me,

-                                              No...

But yet with him,
he says he's a different person.
i believe him.
i can be myself with him.
an idiot and all.
with him,
i try and forget,
and not live with regrets.
because,
        i know...

if i ever gave up seeing you,
for some stupid boy in the past,
that would really be stupid to me...

Your smile,
           His smile,
                     Ours together

-                                             As One...
