mr milller, your title, please.....?

a few times
i stole a glance
at you
stealing a glance
at me
and it looked
as if maybe
you thought
i was happier than you
and i would love
to have the opportunity
to tell you
that it isn't so.

I love the title of this...sort of like an interruption in the middle of a daydream, played out like a movie scene...

sounds like a song in the making

If I was stealing a glance, that's not what I'd be thinking.

I'd be thinking, "Damn, that boy is cute!"

Just sayin'.

But the writing's still really good! :)

...i dont think ones level of happiness can be compared with anothers - since ppl consider and base happiness on diff things -
i feel like theres almost no way to compare.

but - i love ur writing :)

For some reason, the visual of Eeyore popped into my head. He was always saying he was happy but he never looked it.

Great piece.

Reminds me of a patient once who said, "Who can measure another's pain." That's stuck with me for 20 years.
