Broken Smile

​Smile, beacuse it confuses people.

They don't need to know your efforts are feeble.

Inside you're breaking down. 

 

Smile, because it's easier than explaining...

That you feel how the sky looks raining.

But that you don't want it to change.

 

What is killing you inside.

Because on the outside

You Smile.
