Did i finally reach that point where the tears have run dry?
Today... for no apparent reason,
I smiled.
I didnt think of you this morning,
Wondering how you slept,
Or if you were up all night like me,
Pacing and pondering the miseries of life.
Today, i laughed for the first time in a long time
It felt so good.
I didnt check my email 18 times to see if you had written...
And when i checked it this evening and there was still nothing from you,
I wasn't disappointed like usual.
Today... i did nothing
I didnt work, i didnt worry.
And it felt fantabulous.
I used the word "fantabulous" 3 times today
and remembered how good it felt
to say that word
Today... instead of screaming at my cats when they woke me up at the crack of dawn,
I cuddled with them.
And it felt wonderful.
Today i tried really hard not to yell at other drivers on the road,
I even let some old lady cross the street in front of my car,
And it felt kinda nice.
Today... when i thought of you,
I thought of forgiving you,
despite everything.
But then i decided that i am happy right now,
and so long as this feeling stays in me,
today i can say "I'm OK without you"
And, well, that feels good too
Tonight, I dont think will be a sleepless night.
I think i will sit on my roof and look at the stars,
Make a few wishes,
None of which will be to have you here tonight.
I will think of you, yes
Maybe i will write about you
(oh, i think i am already accomplishing that)
But tonight, I will not cry
Today... I smiled.
I'm still smiling

And even if you have moments when the hurt is still there, you'll know that you've beat it with that smile... now on to laughter girl. I'm glad you're feeling so good.

A smile, even if brief can illuminate your most dismal moments.

Wonderful! But today you are not the only one left smiling . . . Cuddles is absolutely correct, smiling really is contagious, and, thanks to your poem, anyone who has read it is infected too!
