Obliged To Smile 2003-08-29 @ 10:57 p.m. empty of sincerity That's me That's you Awkward stares and tight-lipped faces The face of coy Our face I softly said, Hi and introduced myself to you and you were obliged to respond Obliged to smile Hi, you responded Keeping a hushed tone I hope we're never in this position again I hope we're never put in this situation again I hate having to force a smile Oblige a smile to form _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ My first week of high school has just passed me by, and I can honestly say I like it. My teachers are O.K., for the most part, and I'm meeting new people. I've been surprisingly outgoing, at least by my standards, and I've made about five new aquaintences. It all starts out very awkward, much like the "poem" above. I wrote the "poem" during my computer class, after "befriending" an Argentinian girl named Carla. She has amazing style, and has the cutest chopped hairdo. ____________ Listening to: "Obstacle 2" by Interpol
