Poetry For The Hurt And Loved

Smile

Smile
Everyday I wake up smiling
Even though I'm broken
I make an effort to smile as much as I can
But smiling doesn't make me happy
It's makes everyone else happy
Nobody cares how broken you are
Nobody cares the you wake up each and every day wanting to kill yourself
And going to bed every single night wondering why you didn't
Nobody cares about the origin story
They just want the now
No one cares about how you feel
Because
People don't care
Humanity doesn't care how many times you've been lied to
Humanity doesn't care if you wish you would die a horrible death
Humanity doesn't care about me
Or you
Or anyone
Humanity is selfish
But so are people
I'm selfish for thinking I'm sad
What about everyone else
Who has worse
Your lucky to have a roof over your head
But that doesn't make up for the broken family inside
But I guess all I am is a broken girl in a broken house in a broken world

Who knows how to smile
And I guess that's a plus
