People ask me everyday. "how do you do it?"
Which makes me wonder what they mean, "how to do you smile?"
They say it like there is steps to do it. The first thing is find something that makes you happy and remember the story behind it, next thing, when your done thinking look in the mirror and you'll see something different. Something you haven't seen since that day. A Smile.
But if you want the way i smile then do this.
Make you're mouth muscles move up and there you go. Faking a smile. Pretending everything will be okay.No one will bother you because when you smile no one thinks anything is wrong.
Growing up, everyone telling you that everything is gonna be okay.
Eventually it will but not for as long as you thought. They tell you to think of something happy even though it is not the same thing as being happy you'll be okay. Right? That's what they say. Everything is going to be okay.
But do they know that you're not okay? Do they know what you're doing to yourself? Would it be okay? To starve yourself until it's 'okay' for you? To paint pictures on your arms with anything sharp? To drive yourself insane? Will it be 'okay' then? Because last time i checked suicide wasn't OKAY
