Smile when you cry


Smile when you cry 
Smile when you cry 
Smile to hide the pain
Smile to live another day
Only the weak cry and you are NOT weak
You are strong
You are not stupid 
Only the stupid cry
You are strong 
You are strong
You are wrong
…
You are not strong 
You cry
You are stupid
You cry
You don't matter and you never will
You are broken you will never be fixed
No one will fix you with gold
No one will fill you cracks with gold
No one will make you better
You cry 
But you smile when you cry so no one will sea the pain
