 If You Follow A Trail Of Tears I smile as if nothing is wrong Masking the hurting inside I shall wear my happy face The tears I could always hide For too long my heart ached Going way beyond despair Most feelings are revealed Underneath the smiles I wear My smiles disguise the pain The sorrow is felt internally Although feeling shattered Tears had been shed silently Whilst smiling on the outside The inside had fallen apart If you follow a trail of tears You will find my broken heart Hope©2008 |

One of your most beautiful sad poems, dear Hope! My New Year's advice: wrap the past in a nice memory veil and open your heart to experience life's gifts and love's gifts anew. Love, dear Poetess. Margherita  |

Beautiful verses to set up the ending which I also love! "If you follow a trail of tears You will find my broken heart" Those are two super lines! Eric |
