Genuine

I smile, genuinely smile
when he talks to me
tells me im special
helps me see

im not a failure
not a disappointment
not selfish
not misunderstood

I smile, genuinely smile
when he laughs the way he does
makes me laugh along with him
wraps me up in his far away hugs

im not sad
not angry
not nervous
not tired

I smile, genuinely smile
when he says i understand
when he says "i wuv you"
when he lends me a hand

im not forgotten
not unloved
not left behind
not alone

And i smile, Genuinely smile
