I fake a smile,

I hide my problems,

I hide my fears.

No one cares,

They pretend to care.

Sometimes you gotta pretend that everything seems okay.

You could see a smile everyday,

But you can never know whose world is actually upside down.

I can't handle the pain,

But I'm strong and I have to be Strong,

I'll show them that I'm better than that.

My mother told me one day,

If everyone cared,

Then nobody would cry.

If everyone loved,

And nobody would lie.

If everyone shared,
