It's scary, what a smile can hide..

You saw her everyday,
the goofy smile,
those rosy pink lips.
She always laughed,
and could form
a smile on anyone's lips.

But she was the same girl,
who was breaking apart,
drowning in her mind.
She was the same person,
who bottled those emotions.

How could you not see?
Those unshed tears
behind those eyes.
The smile,
that never reached her eyes.
The sadness she hid,
behind that mask..
When you claimed to know her,
all too well..

Behind my smile, there's a story,
you'd never understand...
