Fake smiles.


Just because I always try to smile, Doesn't mean I'm always happy. Just because I always laugh, Doesn't mean it's always funny. Just because I try to be nice all the time, Doesn't mean it's easy. Just because I seem joyful, Doesn't mean my life is perfect. Your mood affects others, And it just means I put your happiness before mine.
