Your smile is a beautiful lie,
In the white garden of your home.

Your home is decorated like a doll house,
With black and grey wallpaper on your walls.

With wrinkled creases on my forehead,
I ask you, "are you okay?"
With a painted smile, you said, " I am fine."

You seem fine, real fine.
But then, why I am catching sight of your soul silently crying with no tears?
Is it my delusion or your true self?
And why am I seeing myself in your deprived soul?

Please open your garden to someone,
Someone you can cry shoulder away,
Please don't keep your darkness within you, darlin',
You deserve all the sunshine in this world,
For your garden to flower.

I want to see you smile again,
With no lies tainting it.
Smile, girl.
