When we had been smiling

There were days, when we had been smiling,
Over small inconsequential things
And now, the smile ain’t forming,
Frowns are replacing.

I’m sorry to be acting this depressed,
I have no right to be,
Burdening you with my woes,
But I ain’t smiling.

Because when guilt is behind your back,
Always staying there, pricking,
How can I giggle, how can I feel like laughing?
When everything is just so wrong?

How can I smile, without ever correcting?
The mistakes along my way, erasing,
How can I smile, without understanding,
That it requires some effort to undo what hath been done?

My smile, had been my asset,
I don’t know who took it away, maybe it was me,
Aha, gone it is now, just like you,
To laugh again, seems impossible.

Until you forgive of course, until you say yes,
That you forgive me for all my mistakes,
Then you can see my smile,
See the light back on my face.

So we may laugh like our carefree days,
When things were so sweet,
So that we make keep in memories,
How good friends we were!!!
