'don'T Feign a Smile'

When all I want, is to see you smile again It will help you remember how beautiful Your life once were It can be that way again Although it will take time Don’t feign a smile to convince the world “I got it right” It doesn’t take a day to heal Your time isn’t mine and Neither is your healing mine I will walk or run the way with you Just make it through today Tomorrow you can build courage again

Who ever this is for, it is good to know, they are not walking alone, that you got their back and you are strength even though they need to do it on their own. hugs
