&quot;What, do you really think I was<br /> strong enough to handle it?<br /> If you did, then sweetie, you<br /> don&#039;t know me at all.<br /> These &quot;smiles&quot; are fake.<br /> Just another lie people bought.<br /> You will never know the disaster<br /> that&#039;s behind them.&quot; -Anonymous


I step on solid ice.

CRACK!

Looking down,
I see a white line.

I step forward more.
That's all I have left to do.

More white lines,
seeming to be in a pattern.
More ear-splinting 'cracks'!

The ice I walk on is slowly
falling beneath my feet..

I wrote this poem when I was in a very depressed state of mind..
Over time I will become strong again.
