Words came like falling leaves of autumn <br /> Slowly touch its body to the soft ground <br /> Until when it will lay there? <br /> Until hurt fly like dust, blown by soft wind. <br /> <br />Leaves of anger never shadows my heart <br /> Nor hatred has a place that could tear me apart <br /> Tears maybe falling likes rains of May <br /> Just washing away the hurt in me in every way. <br /> <br />You may wonder why? <br /> You may think there is a mystery in me <br /> harming me, killing the smile you see <br /> Something behind those lonely words? <br /> The pain, the longing that can't be ignored. <br /> <br />A mystery I will remain to be <br /> Here in my own kingdom of fantasy <br /> Where birds, butterflies, fireflies dances over me <br /> Where water glitters, giggles as sunshine kisses sweetly <br /> Where flowers of different hues blossom beautifully. <br /> <br /> This is my place, a place where I will always be <br /> Where I can smile behind the pain <br /> Where you can come and be with me <br /> Where my dream is always a reality. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> _mai_ <br />20Dec08<br /><br />Maia Padua<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/smile-behind-the-pain/
