Deception of a Smile


Perfect, ever confident

Never tries, always wins

Speaks no evil, hears no sin

What a picture perfect family

A model of what we should be

 

Perfectly incompetent

Always tries, never wins

Speaks pure evil, feels the sin

What a picture perfect family

Too bad it was make-believe
