where'd she go?

by kelli bircket (Aries) - Not entered

where's the smile that once lit your face?
where's the charm?  where's the grace?
   where'd it go?  why'd it leave?
will it return?  please answer me!

   where's the happiness you once felt?
where's the laughter?  a heart, it could melt.
   where'd it go?  why'd it leave?
will it return?  please answer me!

   where's the bubbely girl i once knew?
who never frowned when times were blue.
   where'd she go?  why'd she leave?
will she return?  please answer me!

   the girl has left, but not for good.
she'll soon return, when she should.
   she's sad right now, so let her be.
how do i know?  that girl is me!

Reason for writing:

    people always want me to be so damn happy all the time.  if 
i get a little upset, they try to cheer me up!  why can't 
they just listen to me when i'm upset and just let me be 
upset!?
