I’m as happy as Robin Williams
I smile like he do through and through
But deep down the phrase bothers you
A jester’s smile that goes on for miles
All the meanwhile how I feel is filed
Away like locked thoughts, not allowed to run free
Because if I let it, something will happen to me
Yes you have needs, I’m here to help or even serve
But when do I get the life I deserve
I’m glad you’re happy, and to see you laugh
I’m happy to be of service, for what you see on the surface
Beneath the make up, the crinkle in the eyes
I’ve practiced my laugh for hours and well
So that no one deep down could never tell
How happy I truly am, as happy as Robin Williams
I know deep down, unmedicated on the inside
Glowing on the outside
Would it truly shock you if I pulled it off?
With no unplanned savior, simply finding relief
How comical it would be to me, to finally be relieved
The list of needs you have, grows longer and longer
And it drains on my soul, it’s like the reaper forgot to collect one
And in this body I rot, like a forgotten lost plot
Externally I’ll give you the show you seek
So you’ll never know what kind of happiness i hold beneath

If You Love Me, You'll Do It
I met Jason when I was five years old. I could say that I loved him from the moment I saw him. He was so handsome to me and I felt in awe by his presence. When they introduced him as the new kid in school, I wanted to be his friend right away. I remember it like it was yesterday. I remember his smile and how he didn't seem shy. He appeared confident and ready to learn. I waved at him and said "hello," before anyone else could even say a word. He sat next to me, and I asked him if he wanted to be friends. He looked so happy as he said, "Yes!"
