DEAR FRIENDLY FACE

I walked around today
in no particular mood,
no I lie, I was sad
I felt like crying, felt like
I was no good, maybe if I destroyed myself
that would be good.
Then as I sat in the coffee house
tears came down my face,
I knew this wasnt the time or place.
but I couldnt help it
I felt like giving up
when it was just my luck
a stranger came and asked if I was okay
though this was peculiar, I responed
as more tears flowed and I spilled myself.
Then the strangest thing of all,
you listened, smiled and told me not to worry,
told me that it would get better,
that you had been through the same.
But that didnt matter,
you had smiled, thats what mattered.
Your simple smile changed my mind.
No more thoughts of destruction
my tears faded away
and that smile passed to me.
So I wanted to say thanks.
