Some people show real smiles
But the thing is how do we know if that smile is real
It takes a lot to truly smile but it takes one small muscle to make a fake one
I don't understand why I've been feeling the way I have been lately
but one thing I know
Is
that i don't know
I don't know what's wrong with me
Over the past couple days I've been getting worse and worse
More filled with depression and sadness
I need help
but
I'm afraid I'm afraid to lose people
I don't know how to share emotions
It seems so easy but yet it's so hard it's so hard for me to share mine and have a real smile
As I look down on this writing I'm doing I can't help but to cry
As I look down on my hands I see tears on them from my eyes
I see a kid I've never seen before
Just standing there
Standing in darkness
Everything around him is dark he can't see anything in front of his eyes
And every night I see him he reminds me so much of me
Just a young kid with darkness and sadness all around him
Not knowing what to do or what to say to anyone so he keeps quite through every day
