By Night

By day, she smiles

By night, she dies

By day, he laughs

By night, he's torn


By day, she's happy

till people envy her for it

but by night she shows how broken

she really is


By day, he smiles

like everything is fine

but by night, the tears

show his brokenness 


They both cry midnight tears

they both write testaments of pain and fear

they both get up again

they both plaster a smile again


But unlike what you'd expect

they don't meet

they keep smiling and crying

even if the cuts too deep.
