If you look at her closely,
You can see that,
Every now and then,
She turns away from from her group of Friends,
Her smile falters,
And she becomes another person for a few seconds;
A sad person,
A person who is broken and damaged,
And after a few depressing seconds,
She goes back to the group,
Smiling and joking around,
She almost looks like she is actually happy,
But if you look at her closely,
You can see how spurious her smile really is,
And you can see all the wreckage behind her fake smile.
