It gets hard, trying to look okay.
You don't have to look amazing all the time or always be put together.
But people know you
because of your smile.
Do you always smile?
And the
moment
your smile
goes away.
people look at you differently.
people see the crack.
AND ALARM BELLS GO OFF.
Why aren't you smiling?
What's wrong?
Are you doing alright?
Yeah I am Great
My Best friend
left.
So I'm not smiling.
It doesn't feel appropriate.
But I don't say anything.
Yeah I am Great
My stomachs just hurting.
I am so tired.
Its easy.
Oh there's your smile again!
Its empty
this time.
What if
its never
full again.
Do you always smile?
I try.
