Poetry: Split personality

by Cherlee

Created on: November 07, 2010

I look over at you with a comfortable smile. 
 
My smile fades as I see this stranger before me. 
 
The anger & lip movements from you scare me. 
 
I softly speak your name, 
 
You turn to look my way. 
 
I see your facial expression quickly change to a fake smile. 
 
I let you think I did not notice. 
 
As I do I see your smile quickly fade. 
 
Once again your emotion  change into a fit of laughter. 
 
I look over at you with confusion & sadness. 
 
You look up at me wondering what is wrong. 
 
Your laughter fades away quickly. 
 
As you realize there was not anyone in the room beside me.
