'i Found a Smile'

I didn't think of you today, 
I must be getting better 

I didn't listen to "our song" today 
I found one with a better meaning

I am not forgetting you
just finding a place where I can breathe

just like you suggested
remember you said, 
smile for me forget the tears 
it will make you feel less guilty?

that is exactly what I did

I found a smile if only for a while 
I guess it’s better than nothing
