It's Okay to Smile
It's okay to smile,
It's okay to laugh
even though the ones we love
from this life and world do pass
It's okay to dance
feeling music and joy,
even though we know that death
is something we can't avoid
It's okay to love
and give your heart away,
even though you know it might
be broken to pieces someday
It's okay to grin,
to be happy isn't wrong,
even though the ones we love
from our sides have now gone
It's alright to cry,
it's okay to weep,
But do not forget that they still live
even when they've gone to sleep
It's okay to smile,
it's okay to laugh
becuase we know how short time is
before our lives will pass

luv,

It's a good thing that that was a short poem or I would have been bawling. Someone I loved very much died a few days ago and I have been devestated I have felt like noone else cared at all but maybe they know that it's OK to laugh. This was like it spoke right to me. Thanks

...and that's all I'mm gonna say! For now...
this was really great. i liked the first part the best. altho after losing someone i loved dearly, it doesn't feel at first okay to smile or laugh for awhile for fear people will think you don't care, you didn't love.
