It Takes Practice I am hurting so much Thought I made that clear I’ll do my crying alone Best you don’t come near Asking can you help In your sweet caring way Again I shall refuse Better that you stay away Your heart reaching In each loving expression Offering me your light To my darker depression I heard every word You had left me thinking Although I remain low Heart broken and sinking Shrug your shoulders Remove the helping hand Because being ignored Is what I can understand Show me no sympathy Be amused with the fact The jokes are on me Displaying this happy act Humour hides pain Drowning in these tears I know how to smile I’ve practiced for years Hope ©2001 |

Heart wrenching stuff. I know how to smile I've practiced for years Wonderfully expressed Tracey If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please? |
