Why Does She Fake a Smile?

by Elena   Oct 17, 2004


Looking into a mirror, seeing a girl with a smile
But when you look into her eyes, all you see is sadness
She soon realized nothing could make her happy... that took awhile
Yet there is one thing that could make her happy and drive out all this madness

Every time she thinks about it, she gets confused
She just wanted to know if it was the truth or stupid lies
When she was going to be told it, She refused
The truth would make her happy. And happiness would settle in her eyes.

If you think about it, she refuses to be happy
Curious as to why she has to fake a smile
Why isn't she the happy little girl she used to be?
Every time someone asks if she is sad, she lies in denial

She may seem like a bright cheerful girl
She may seem happy because of her fake smile
But she is a broken angel in her own little world
She stored how she feels in this worthless file

She secretly cries in a corner
She sits there in the dark for awhile
She wastes her time crying over stupid things
But... confusion as to why she has to fake a smile.

Note: If the poem is confusing, it's meant to be that way. I was in a very confusing mood... If you know what I mean. ^^;
