Smiling helps you get
Through the tough things in life, but
It's useless for me.

Should it be that I
Just cannot do it? Or is
It because I don't feel

What is really wrong?
I cannot describe it much,
For what is to come

With describing? So,
Why don't you just please tell me, why
Can I not explain,
This emptiness inside?
