Smile because it's healthy,
Not because it's beautiful.
Love because it's necessary
And not for the sake of being loved.
Exist because our thoughts do,
Not because He said so.
Speak because the words are cooped up inside our throats, pushing and battling and screaming for air—
Not because our mouths are there.
