What I Should've Done

Here is a poem for you all today! I don't know what's up with the other authors, but at least you have me this week. Hopefully I'll remain, but finals are approaching fast and I may have a freak out moment this year. But don't stop coming to the blog for a look at the latest and greatest!

What I Should've Done

Behind this smile
are a million tears.
Behind these optimistic eyes,
is a dreadful pessimistic fear.
Behind these words I speak,
so carefully chosen and

articulated with a plan,

are the ones I left unsaid,

the ones that describe 

indescribable fathoms of thought.

The ones that tell the depth

of a bottomless pit,

the ones that show colors

to a blind man,

and the ones that blend

all the seasons together

to create

a summer that snows while

leaves fall and turn shades of red

and new buds begin to bloom.

The words that say how I really feel.

And what I should've done

is begin to try.

I should've started the sentence with "I"

and I should've just gone on from there...
