PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Sometimes it’s hard to forget the hurt.
no matter how much time goes by,
Back to your smile I always revert.

Some days the boys will try to flirt
with that special twinkle in their eye,
but sometimes it’s hard to forget the hurt.

With an awkward smile my eyes divert
as I squeak out a polite goodbye.
Back to your smile I always revert.

A few dark secrets I’ll sometimes blurt
when a friend asks the question, “why?”
Sometimes it’s hard to forget the hurt.

Slipping on an old sweatshirt
and staring into the vast night sky,
it’s back to your smile I always revert.

Although this truth can disconcert,
if asked I cannot deny,
sometimes it’s hard to forget the hurt,
and back to your smile I always revert.
