Every one of my smiles tell a story
They all beam out your name
Leaving a sparkle in my eye while they conquer my face.
Collecting as a fountain of memories,
in the heart that we once shared

Every one of my tears tell a story
They all scream out your name
Leaving trails of pain on my cheaks behind them.
Collecting as a puddle of my misery,
in the bed that we once shared

Every one of my dreams tell a story
They all long for your name
Leaving wishfull thinking to fill my mind while they slowly fade away.
Collecting as a river of hope,
in the love that we once shared

...

*for someone who's used to heartache,losing it all was just a matter of time*
Be kind,for everyone you meet is fighting a harder battle

This is rather good and the imagery that it created was great.  Great job!

I liked the use of repetition in this poem. It brings everything together yet also shows the contrasts. I also have to agree with the others that the imagery was done well.

I'll ditto them--good imagery, good repetition. A well-expressed feeling...Just don't lose yourself. They're -your- smiles, -your- tears, -your- dreams...no one else's. Good luck in reclaiming them.
