Smile

[Avatre]

Smile

My heart shatters like glass
I draw in breath slowly
My mind frozen in the moment
You smile and doom me

Grey eyes strive to meet mine
As I quickly turn away
My heart racing; my face stone
There being nothing left to say

Our words have left
We have started the dance
Time to change partners?
Shall I take the chance?

Or do I walk towards my doom?
As once three years before
Is you smile but for friends
Or could it be something more?

Whichever it is I walk towards
Whatever it is that you do
All I know is if you smile
I will again offer my heart to you

A/N: Dedicated to Pat... This poem, to me, shows the ultimate weakness when you are in love....bleh

i totally know how this goes...i've had this on-going crush for a year and a half now...and well everytime i think i'm over him he does something sweet and i do anything for him again...bite...

this is a real good piece...i love the rhythm in it...great job!

[SilverEyes]

Grrr, evil crushes that you just can't forget. Mine is a complicated and really aggravating because things could have gone forward if my life hadn't changed so dramatically. Anyway, nice write and definitely heart felt.

This is wonderfully done...in the folly of my youth I too fell for those enchanting smiles I soon learned to regret...a beautiful piece
