Just Where Did That Smile Go To? Where did that smile go? I remember so many years ago, You taught me how to swim, Despite how the cold water was bad for you. You didn't care. I remember so many years ago, You would praise my artwork, Despite how they were ugly no matter how many times I see it. You didn't care. I remember so many years ago, You would tell me that I was a good girl when I washed the dishes, Despite how there were traces of soap here and there, A grain of rice still stuck on the bowl. You had to wash all of the plates again. You didn't care. I remember just a week ago, We sat on the sofa, with the TV blaring. We were looking through my childhood photos. When I was younger, cuter, less rude, more obedient. We laughed at the faces I made, Those awkward smiles with a few teeth missing. I remember just this morning, I wished you a happy new year. Another year had passed, it's now 2014. I've grown up, even just a little, No longer that little girl with the awkward smile. I expected a warm greeting, A kind smile like the one I saw everyday as I grew up. But my hopes crashed down, with just one sentence of yours. What have I done wrong? "Happy new year? I'm not happy at all!" What a great way to start the year. Just where did that smile go to?
