Another day,
What to wear?
Oh yes, a smile.
Okay now we're ready to face the world.

Another laugh,
Jokes should be funny.
They are.
So why is this laugh not real?

Another invite,
No I'm good.
We fight everyday,
The voices in my head won't let me go.

Speak up,
Lips, please move.
Finally, they do move,
But it's another smile.
Maybe if they stretch wide enough, it'll become real.
