Smile Sadly, Sweet One

Smile sadly, Sweet One.
Hide away from the cruel world.
Those who say that you've gone crazy;
The ones that only cause you hurt.

You have so much more to live for,
But you're confined to your dark house.
While the whole town laughs about you,
When you wouldn't even hurt a mouse.

Someday soon perhaps you'll be free,
From the awful chains that keep you bound.
Finally be able to live the life you want,
That for right now you can only dream about.

So smile sadly, Sweet One.
The pain will only last a bit longer.
Listen to those wise ones who say,
"What doesn't kill you makes you stronger."
