Were We Born To Smile

Were we born to smile? I ask myself the question And wait for a reply But I tell myself once more Were we born to feel happy? Were we born to feel joy? I got into a collective thought And wonder............. Were we born to feel emotions? Oh wait!!! No We weren't Or were we? After being stabbed By friends that later ends I burn in rage And cry to beyond heights That all relationships ends and also friends

Thanks for sharing this. Welcome to Poetry Soup. I welcome you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." God bless you.
