I put a smile on my face,
Because it's what is expected,
I tell you that I'm fine,
So your feelings are protected,
And you always believe me,
When I say that I'm okay,
Since the truth of the matter is,
That I want it to be that way.
I don't want you to see,
That I'm just dancing in the rain,
So it will camouflage my tears,
Since I want to spare you that pain,
Because I'm scared to share,
All those feelings in the box,
That I created within myself,
And then bolted with a lock.
But you can't go catching stars,
If you are fearful of the night,
So I unlock that box,
And bring it within your sight.
