And i didn't want to hurt you
Seeing you this happy
So i kept you safe from the knowledge
That your words
In every attempt to reach out to me
So akin to help
So akin to comfort
Would fall flat every single time
And it's not your fault
That no matter how hard you tried
My mind would always emanate silence
Through your speech of wisdom
Against my deeply held beliefs
It's the sad truth that i cannot change
And even worse when i know i can't
But i learned to make peace with it
So for now
At this very moment
I will let this smile
Make you believe otherwise
And allow my overbearing stubbornness
To go seemingly unnoticed
In the end
It's better for both of us
