This smile of mine

PLEASE VOTE AND TELL ME WHAT YOU ALL THIINK ABOUT MY WORK IT WOULD REALLY HELP ME OUT A LOT THANKS

Everyone says I have a beautiful smile,
Everyone always ask me…
“Why do you smile all the time?”
It's just a habit that I have to always seem happy
But do people really know what this smile really means?

No one has an idea… I could be screaming inside with such pain
And no one knows.
Having a thoughts of the past just runs through my mind
Things I want to forget and move on but I just can't.
I could be crying out for love and no one knows.
The love that I dish out,
God knows I want some back.
I want to be loved in every way, shape, and form.
I could be scared to death of something and I have no idea what I'm going to do
Or where I am going to turn.
What's going to happen next?
I have no idea that scares me the most
Not knowing where this life,
“Smile” is going to take me

I hide behind this smile of mine.

This smile of mine is like a mask.
I can take it off when no one is around.
And show the true emotions that I have deep inside,
Those emotions that I tend to hide,
This smile is my blanket that I take everywhere with me
It protects me
I'm OK with this smile of mine.

Don't get me wrong I have wonderful days
Where I'm so happy and loving life
Filled with joy and gladness
Where there is no sadness
But sometimes it just creeps up on me,
It seems like I have to smile
Just so everyone will be happy and not worry about me

I can't let the society down
Not showing my smile?
I think it would make things worse.

My smile is a compromise
I smile to take the pain away just for a while
To make it seem that I'm OK.
No worries for me
No I don't want that
Just remember me
The one with the smile
Sunshine
