a smile hides so many secrets,
so much pain,
so many people who always thinks you're the one to blame

whether it be you trapped in a cage society calls school
or at a place set out to be a loving zone
called your home,

but, yet I stay strong and as the day
swings along i acknowledge
the uncertainty and curiosity of knowing who
looks behind the smile I give everyday
and just to let the depression slowly

sway away.
