Don't ask
Don't speak
Nod and accept
If they don't tell you
it's not real
It's all ok
When you see her
Crying under her smile
Slowly breaking
But not speaking
Just assume
It's all ok
She hugs you often
And loves you even more
For not asking
And not speaking
Because
It's all ok
Then finally
It hits
The news
The tears
The reality
But you pretend
You pretend
That you heard nothing
You spoke nothing
You asked nothing
Because
If they don't tell you
It's not real
And
It's all ok
