FAKE SMILES

Sometimes we smile to hide a tear

Sometimes we laugh not to show fear

Sometimes we smile to make people not see

How unhappy we really can be

Sometimes we smile to hide or true intentions

Sometimes we send people through in the wrong direction

When we fake or smiles we lye to ourselves

No one can see we are calling for help

Sometimes we smile to make people feel better

Sometime we smile but are always under the weather

Sometime we cry through or hidden smiles

No one sees or inner child

Sometimes we smile but want to cry

Fake smiles aren’t worth the while.
