Smile

I wish I tried,

But I just cried.

Staring at the mirror,

I see a girl in tears,

Looking back at her happy years,

When she played,

And when she swayed.

But now everything is such a disgrace;

And the smile…..

That never came on her face.

Wishing deeply she could reverse,

The curses,

And the tears;

back to the innocent,

And the pleasant

Smile.


The author's comments:

I went through a very depressing situation and if any other teen was in my place I am pretty sure she or he would have undergone a strong feeling to suicide. I always regret being a bad daughter to my mom and dad. This poem is about how I wish I could go back in time and change things.
