Behind a smile...*
I was sent here for a reason
And one reason only
I had a mission
My mission was to be completed
I had choices but didn’t know how to use them
I had opportunities but did not know what it meant
I was sent from heaven to find the girl with a joy for life
However, when I did I couldn’t understand...
How so much joy is on once, face
However, the girl’s heart is crushed into a thousand pieces
I asked her how she still smiles when her heart is falling to pieces
And she looked up at me and said...
This is how you survive in my world
The only reason you can see it is because...
I let the world see what I want them to see
And you my friend is the one who took the time to dig a little deeper
The one who truly wanted to know the girl behind the smile
Life isn’t always what it seems...*
