I Smile

Face to face
Words exchanged
Glances seen
Emotions hidden
Do you see my smile?
It's worn for you
It's a mask
For the emotions I keep
Betrayal lingers
Confusion stirs
Pain tingles
Sadness weighs
Lonliness blinds
Love stays
I smile
Because you don't know me

The mask with a painted on smile,
And a tear behing the mask.
great work.
Joel.

 I howl a mournful song, that echos within my chambered heart, for all to read? nay for all to feel.

Yes it is intriguing we can be or are totally different behind the facade  

 At last I have heard the song of enlightenment.... In your heart you can hear it now, if you listen....
It is the song your spirit has been singing since the moment of your birth. All lasting victories are won in the heart....

It's when your real face hurts the other person.. that you have to wear a mask.. You love them so much that you can't show that they have hurt you because you fear hurting them or complicating their life..  So I Smile..

Hi Zumble,
Smile your way through difficulties and pain. I've been in this situtaiton may times and keep smiling. If its a betrayal never let this person into your heart again. Put him in his place rather throw him.

Sincerely
A_L
