People will remain looking at the cheery person I am,
And I will remain showing them that.

Keeping the cracked part for my sketches,
Unsteady, aren't I?

That smile always lock them onto me,
I hate knowing that, don't I?

What is
[fake smile]
definition?

It's generally when your own heart doesn't flutter while you are smiling?

For me, it's when my eyes don't smile with my lips.
Understandable, isn't it?

In my own down days,
You'll find me by the mirror trying to pull up a smile.
Worrisome, isn't it?

Mum I lost myself,
I really did.

I no longer the cheery fresh girl I used to be,

Who begin her day by annoying you,

Who's asking for a smile
- if broken -
from you,

While hiding a tear full of nostalgia,

For someone she no longer can see,

Until she started to ask them to be in her dreams,
Almost every night.

mum I feel hopeless.
