#WritcoPoemChallenge
The smile on my face is real,
It bears witness to how I feel...
I only use the smile, only, as a cover.
Because I'd rather, just smile, to
act If I'm ok.
Than having to hear,
something like this.
What's wrong with you today,
is everything ok?
Somedays, I'd rather, be left alone.
There's many days, I just don't feel like talking, and
I'm not listening to twenty questions.
I figure, that's my right!
If I felt like, talking, I'd awnsered
your question.
If I don't, just please be quite.
I need you to, just go,
leave me alone. You were right,
I don't feel well. I know your probably
just trying to help.
I'm sorry, If I sound like a jerk,
but I don't need of your help.
I don't need any help today.
Just please, If you'll just go on,
with whatever you were doing.
Don't ask me anything else.
Today, I just want to be left alone.
Please just, let me be.
