Fake

Faking a smile is harder than it seems
Smiling, when all you want to do is cry,
Smiling, when inside you hope to die.
Faking a smile is only a façade,
A way to please other people,
A way to appear happy.
Smiling, when all you feel is pain,
Smiling, when all you want is someone who cares,
Someone who can see through the fakeness,
Someone who can see through that smile.
Faking a smile is harder than it seems,
Especially when you feel like giving up,
Especially when you have no more strength to fake that smile…
