I hate the way I feel and the smile that doesn't disguise the tears
the way I want to hide from the memories of these last few years
why does my brain persist in throwing up images of happier times
why am I always reminded of the perfect track, lyrics and rhyme

and then I think of all that I believe in and tell myself I really am pathetic
go make yourself smile remember who you are and go and be poetic
so here I am trying to do just that but it's never quite that easy is it?
I'm a persistent little wench and when life isn't easy you just can't quit

So I'm resorting to boring all of you who think of me as a cheerful little soul
but just in case you're thinking " Rainbow, where is your self-control ! "
I should probably make it clear why I'm feeling so sad and neglected
They promised me my replacement CD and it's NOT even been collected..

As you can tell being confined and bored is starting to tell on me..*g*

well, my very own wench teacher your persistance pays off poetically, those first 2 lines and then the last are killer, if I have to write poems as good as you to become a wench, I don't think I am gonna make it *g* will just have to be a "stand in wench" for when you need a smile

Bore us? When you are happy you shine upon us. Why would we even think about not doing the same for you when you need it. Let us shine some sun down on you friend. Let that sun dry those tears and if we are lucky we might create a rainbow....

I doubt anyone here has known this fine lady as long as I have....nor what turmoil her life has been. And through all the heartache, tears and "letdowns"...she never ceases to amaze me, or offer hugs, advice, and friendship....This is one very remarkable, intelligent, and dear dear lady! (And, she has the most beautiful eyes you've ever laid yours on!!!)

I'll let you into a secret...I hate to be sad even when I am so I changed the last line to something I hoped would make someone smile ...but Toe's post meant I had to confess..I do get sad but hopefully I try to see happiness through the tears...it's as if I argue with myself..on the one hand, life is too short to be sad but on the other, you have to be receptive and that naturally means you will have both happiness and sadness - I just wish I could equal out the ratio a little..

Thanks Darling...I may be wrong but I think to own up to sadness is as good as owning up to being happy...both means you feel...(and that isn't your slot for something rude..*g*

see, we just can't help ourselves..always trying to laugh, aren't we?

I can't really respond to this one, Rainbow, except to say I wish you all the happiness there is. You deserve it for what you have endured and for what you do for others. HUSG!
