I SMILE

By Natural_beauty_Ashe •
I SMILE,
BECAUSE I HAVE PLENTY OF REASONS TO CRY
I SMILE,
TO KEEP AWAY FROM THE MEMORIES OF WANTING TO DIE
I SMILE,
BECAUSE I KNOW I HAVE A CHILD
HOW WOULD SHE FEEL IF HER MOMMY WAS ALWAYS DOWN?
SHE IS THE DOMINANT REASON AS TO WHY I SMILE
I SMILE,
TO RID MYSELF OF ALL THE INTERNAL PAIN
I SMILE,
TO DISTRACT MY EYES FROM NOTICING THE CUTS ACROSS MY VEINS
I SMILE,
BECAUSE LAUGHTER IS SO HARD TO PRODUCE
I SMILE,
AS A WAY TO TELL THE WORLD "YOU LOSE"
