hide behind a Smile

A smile, plastered just right
A laugh, faked to perfection.
Head up, posture, check.
Look them in the eyes
Paint a pretty picture
Hide the canvas, bare.

The wall comes up
repair, fortify
See who dares to scale it
But look, there are cracks.
Chip away, create a hole.
Break it down.
Please.

Someday, the facade will slip
The mask will fall
The canvas, clean as silence
The wall, crumbled, broken

Someday, it won't be necessary
To hide behind a smile.

when life throws you lemons sour-sour-close-your-eyes-and-hope-it-goes-away-sour
and people come around around-around-never-ending-never-ending-feel-so-trapped
give them that warm, sugar coated charming-charming-so-very-fake-fake-fake smile
don’t let them see you fall fall-falling-it’s-oh-so-dark
hold your head high higher-higher-don’t-let-the-tears-spill
let them think it’s all ok gilded-fragile-so-completely-shattered
and eventually hopefully-possibly-never-never-maybe
it will be.


Kudos to DictionaryInk on Fanficton.net Third line italics are hers and I loved it so much I had to use it.

life

or something like it...

and that's the way it is

A Prayer for them
the young
the innocent
all because of a stupid mistake
God, why?
The end
of the beginning.
A Prayer for them.

for is it not what life is?

Masquerade
Paper faces on parade
Hide your face
So the world will never find you
