Even Though

She promises,
Even though she knows it is a lie..
She laughs,
Even though she wants to cry...
She lives,
Even though she wants to die...
She smiles,
Even though she wants to cry...
She says she is okay,
Even though she knows she is not...
So she promises,
Even though she knows it is all a lie...
