You Smiled

I want to apologize if I've caused you any trouble.
It just seems it would be unfair to you,
Since you've caused this hurricane of emotion
In my life, if you were to know nothing of it.


I was so happy seeing you each day.
I didn't care it wasn't romantic.
I told you I thought we were friends.
You smiled as if, of course we are,
And your smile braced me and
Then broke my heart.

How gladly I would have
My heart broken every day still.
How little good it does me whole
Without you around to be loved.
