Hiding Behind A Smile
I’m known as the happy girl in school!
I’ve always been called;
“The girl who smiles and talks to everyone!”
It’s nice, it really is.
Lifting everyone’s day with a simple smile.
Though,
no one really knows me.
No one really knows how I go home and cry.
No one knows how tired I really am.
No one really understands,
how draining it is to smile everyday.
No one knows, and will never know,
that I’m just hiding behind a smile.
