A faded smile

A faded smile

A Poem by Althea

I saw a face today with a faded smile
I saw two eyes,they seemed like
they have shaded tears a hundred times
I heard a voice too,that shivered
Which talked about a heart that lacked something forever.....
I saw two ears,they were hearing something with fear
A tale of a girl who was never too dear..
As the story started,I saw those eyes cry
The pain, the sorrow,they seemed so real that they hide
I saw the smile fade,a bit more with time
It felt like something was dying inside her with the passage of time....
As the story went on,she continued to cry..
I wondered what is it that she's lacking inside?
I heard voices that cursed her everytime she cried..
Then I realised that she was lacking some love inside
As the story finished,I saw her eyes dry
I realised that she has had enough that's why she couldn't cry...
All of a sudden everything disappeared that time..
I found myself standing in the room of mine...
I realised I was standing in front of the mirror all that time...
That is when I saw a face with a faded smile...
