Ironic, Isn't It?

I find it ironic,

that the few days after I get a new piercing,

a smiley one, at that.

Trying, and hoping,

that it would make me smile more,

that I would be happier.

But now,

ever since I let a woman at a tattoo shop,

stick a needle through my gum;

That I'm not happier,

in fact, I stopped smiling,

and no one sees the smiley piercing.

And I just seem,

to find the whole ordeal,

really fucking ironic.
