'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
