Just Because

Just because I’m always cheerful 

Doesn’t mean I’m not being careful

Just because I always smile

Doesn’t mean I’m feeling happy

Just because I’m sweet

Doesn’t mean I never feel like really crappy

Just because I like high school

Doesn’t mean I get all A’s

Just because I am cool

Doesn’t mean I’m good at school

Just because I’m smiling 

Doesn’t mean I’m caring

The only one reason I’m telling this

Is because someone should know my true

Feelings that I feel inside me 

And I thought I should tell it to all of you.
