I Smile

I smile but it’s just to hide my soreness
I laugh but it’s just to change the subject 
I cry but it’s just to expose my sadness
I sit alone, quiet and bothered
But it’s just cuz there’s no one to talk too
I scream, protecting my right, the immense of purity
But it’s just like anyone cares
I try with my potency, with my full capacity 
To change, to change the unbearable facts
Just to get a second chance for the ones I love
For the sin I have not touched
For the love that lusted in my blood
I smile again, just to return a favor…
