What is there behind a smile
Is there the happiness and joy of a person
Is there the lies that they can deceive you with
Or is it a mix of both
The happiness that comes from the deceit
And the joy the person feels when they can lie to you so easily
Or can it be totally different
Like the smiles leading to another realm
A realm where it’s not just about you and me
But about everyone and no one
If you don’t get it
Then smile some more
And if you do get it
Keep smiling too
Because in that realm
Everyone needs a little smile
A little something to remind them
That this realm is just fake
Fake just like them
The realm is coated in black
Leaving everything behind the smile tainted
And leaving the surface as tainted as the back
What seems like a ray of hope and happiness
Is something so fake
