I Don't Even Smile Poem by Raj Dronamraju
I Don't Even Smile
I shook your hand
I took the loss
Escape was impossible
I took the loss
I went indoors, contorted into an ugly shape by desire
I came back out beaming phoniness
I couldn't find shelter indoors
There's a day coming where this will not end so easily
When it will be taken hard like a blood vendetta
And passed on to future generations
And that's when a smile loses all meaning
Is merely the go to expression of a demolished psyche
Is flashed with the frequency of a bellboy summoned for the carrying of guests' bags
At that time, I don't even smile
And I'll say people are a black hole
And I get sucked in and then get spit out in a place I don't recognize
Not worried about being lost
Not worried about being alone
I don't even smile
For you, endurance finally breaks
Washes over us with violence
I will snap, I can't shake this off anymore
I don't even smile For you, endurance finally breaks Washes over us with violence I will snap, I can't shake this off anymore.. ...... very beautiful
Sounds like a slow cultivation of a sudden snap- but sheds light on understanding expressions do not necessarily reveal the truth of emotions but are more like practiced acts that masque what is really going on.
