Smile for the picture.
Hide your feelings
they'll fade soon
Fake your laugh.
Choke back your thoughts
until you see the moon.
Showing love,
showing comfort,
is just a child's game
and pulling back the arrow
is useless without
a perfect aim.
They want to see you flawless.
No eyelash out of place.
Let alone a tear
streaming down your precious face.
