An Act

An act

Thats all it ever really is 

An act

I pretend that I'm fine but I'm not 

It's all one big illusion 

I cover my sorrow with a smile

No one knows about the demons I keep at bay

They think I'm the most happiest person in the world 

There's just one problem 

I'm not 

What they see everyday is just a facade 

I plaster a fake smile on my face so no one sees the internal battle that's going on in my mind

It's a battle of ying and yang 

Good and bad 

 Right and wrong 

I try so hard not to let myself break 

The happiness of others is what keeps me going 

The smile is for them but even then I am still unsure if I'll ever find peace in this cruel world 

In the end it's all just one big act
