Smiles are Masks

Long ago I used to know a girl

She loved to joke about the darkest things and dance around the harshest issues

With a Smile

It didn't matter what she talked about

She always managed to make every topic seem not as bad as it was

I talked with her once on a windy day

She told me still smiling

"Moms been doin drugs"

"Dads gone"

"Grandpas dead"

"and my cousins dying"

I was so confused why she was smiling at that

But then she said

"Ain't it funny that the thing your supposed to do when you're happy"

"is the thing that's hiding all the pain in the world?"



































This is figurative so dun worry it ain't a real story
Just meant to give you a new
Perspective on life
