I so detest the smile that sneaks...

I don't like the sunny days,
nor rainbows nor birds nor trees,
'cause they'll desert me one by one,
when my soul begins to freeze.
I don't adore the "silent" charm,
that spring will bring along.
It'll be equally cold then too,
without a rhyme, without a song.

How I hate the pretty flowers,
their pink and purple hues,
the blades of grass, refreshing green,
the sky with all its blues.
The flowing waters I so despise,
they remind me of your love,
The clouds smile, yet full of tears,
I look to the heavens above.

"What does my being seek",
I ask, groping my soul.
The heart just then begins to bleed,
no way I can control.
I don't complain, I don't accuse,
I take it as it comes,
ignoring all the plaintive notes,
that I find me hum.

    ..That's what this poem reminded me of. I really love this write, I can relate to it so much sometimes.

    " "What does my being seek",
    I ask, groping my soul.
    The heart just then begins to bleed,
    no way I can control."

    My favorite part. I can feel the pain through this poem, I love it. I can completely relate to the pain and frustration sunny beautiful days can cause when inside you feel like a raging thunderstorm.
