You seem to far away sometimes
even though your right here.
I'm hold your hand, together we stand
but your not really there.

Your eyes, they stare away from me
a glaze of lasting pain.
I wish you'd smile, for just a while
but there's no sign you care.

You never laugh or even smile,
even when we're together.
Though you have my heart when we're apart
I wish you'd just laugh with me.

I try so hard just to make you smile
your smile is fake, a lie.
This love seems blind and so unkind.
Why can't you smile for me?

I know that I can't make you happy,
I can't make you life any better.
But if for a while I can make you smile
then maybe I can smile too!

He seems a little mysterious, maybe he likes to keep you guessing..
I hope he smiles for you real soon because laughing is the best feel-good remedy!

Hi Ree Ree,

First, I love the title of this. It has a few grammatical problems, however...

You seem to far away sometimes (should be "too far away,"
even though your (you're) right here.
I'm hold your hand, together we stand
but your not really there.

Keep on writin!

Cor

sometime it is more difficult to have someone
do what you want them to do than just accept
them,  try to understand them OR....Ask.
Maybe they will answer.
