I'm too scared to smile any more,
Someone's jealous of my joy.
A well said joke,
A bout of stinging sarcasm,
A subtle, secret exchange.
I must stand stoic.
I must stand stoic.
I have had some good times,
But that attracted prying eyes,
I'm too scared to smile any more,
Someone's jealous of my joy.
And though the good times are back,
I know the graph by now,
And not stupid enough to make believe,
That those eyes have stopped to follow me.
And though I wait for my phone to ring,
I wait for those late night calls,
I know the fairy will cease to sing,
And then I will fall.
But I must stand stoic.
I must stand stoic.
I'm too scared to smile any more,
Someone's jealous of my joy.

Really your poems are more fun to read than the other stuff , good work carry on
Very well written but if it was me I wouldn't care or less on how others feel as happiness to me is self driven...

@bailey: quoting lines from the song "turn turn" without giving credit to the singers (The Byrds) is plagiarism of the worst kind.
