Just because I smile
Does not mean Iยดm happy
I have pain and fear
hiding in my smile
most of my smiles
are from my head
not my heart

Just because I say yes or no
my heart does not speak for itself
my head comes up with something to say
my head ignores what my heart would say
the thoughts of my heart will always
stay hidden unless someone knocks on the door
it may take a while to answer
but eventually the door will open
Because true smiles come from the heart not the head
