A Painfull Smile
Behind my smile is pain
that runs deep into my soul
filling in the cracks of joy with
hate leaving no room for hope
the pain you can not see
soon you will not smile either
as I swim into the sea of loneliness
allowing sadness to fill my lungs
I snatch my smile from your memory
as my body sinks I will live a lie no longer
never forcing a smile, that if you would see through it
I wouldn't be moving in with the fish and saying goodbye forever
