A CRY FOR A SMILE text & photos by Walt Cessna NYC 1-10
once in a while
a cry for a smile
now and then
I beg for a friend
but you and me
too much history
the best thing can only be
that you actually keep running after me
so once in a while
a cry for a smile
for i wouldn’t dare
trade one of these days
cause you’ve been gone before
and i dread that malaise
i need your soothing, subtle and fierce effect on me
not forever, eternally
and now and then
as i’ve come to know you
more than a friend
some kind of warrior
that’s the biggest surprise
no more surprises, no more lies
so once in a while
a cry for a smile
allow me to crack your untouchable shell
why do you always feel like drowning in your own personal hell
if i make it seem easy
it’s only cause you look at everything so hard
but when i get you to smile
it simply breaks my heart
so once in while
a cry for a smile
i’ll sacrafice me
to be your’s superficially
to be your correct in effect and fierce loving daddy
your all around best friend
I’ll suck your fingertips and lick your tears
and stay with you till the end
so if you can’t do it for you
and still refuse to do it for me
then at least give me one more chance
even if i try unsuccessfully
so once in a while
before we must part
a cry for a smile
a cry caught in my heart
i shall love you always
even though we knew it was never meant to be
because i’ve been loving you
while you’ve been killing me
but i’ll always remember the springtime
and i’ll always despise the fall
knowing that you’d leave me
when first i got your call
and once in a while
i’ll cry for your smile
