Don't Cry, Smile.

by Courageous Dreamer   May 25, 2008


Have you ever felt so sad when something doesn't go your way?
The thing you longed for, and now it's gone?

Have you ever had your heart broken,
but you didn't realize you were better off without them?

Have you ever lost someone so close to you,
and thought you could never live without the happiness they used to bring?

These are the times that we should cherish.
The kind that we keep in our hearts for enternity and never forget.
Always have that memory in your heart to look back on for future situations.

We should always be able to look back and smile,
and realize it's only for the better, and not the worst
because it will make us a stronger person than we are now.

So whenever you look back at frowning memories, always remember to say to yourself:
'Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened.'

    This line" Have you ever had your heart broken,
    but you didn't realize you were better off without them?"

    It took me around 3 years to realize that i was better off without them. Love is very powerful and is hard to overcome lost love. 5/5

    Wow. This is amazing. I'd be lying if I were to say anything other than I loved this completely. I love the emotion I feel was put into it. Everything in this was perfect.

    "So whenever you look back at frowning memories, always remember to say to yourself:
    'Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened.' "

    ^^ The ending was flawless. I love this quote, too. And I think it was used amazingly well in this piece.

    5/5

    This is really cute. =] i really liked it alot, and i smiled through it all when i was reading it because i knew where you were going to go with it. and it does get the message across to people when they are feeling down about anything., like it was said just remember the good times and glad it happened.

    keep it up.
    keep on writing.
    love always and forever.

    People don't cry because the person is gone
    they don't cry for what has been lost
    tears come from what will never be
    for those that will never know
    just how great of a person you were
    they will never here your laughter
    see your smile or feel your courage
    They do not cry for saddness of a life gone
    dut rather for the ones who wern't lucky enough to be touched by someone like you

    sorry your poem kinda reminded me of ^ and I thought that I'd give you ideas for a next one
    great job.
