Broken smile
December 10, 2013
The smile on your face is cracked and broken but no one sees
No one sees you for who you are behind your broken smile
No one sees the struggle behind your cheerful eyes
No one sees the sadness behind your broken smile
No one helps because no one can see behind your broken smile
Who broke your smile?
Who changed you?
Who are you behind that broken smile?
No one sees you for who you are behind that broken smile
No one sees the struggle behind your cheerful eyes
No one sees behind your broken smile you cry...

This poem truely does describe me and many others i suspect, i mean i try my best to hide my hurt, hide my pain, and i am my best to be cheerfull and happy. Everyone sees me as this happy upbeat go lucky teen. But deep down, I'm not, but i try my best to show my best behind my broken smile. Thank you for this wonderful peice of poetry! =) LOVE IT!
