Beneath all the smiles you gave away,
None of them were enough to reveal your true
pain
The smiles maybe weren’t enough to make them
stay
Somehow the smile looked like a chain
Holding you down from revealing your weakness
The side that all of us try to keep under the
seam
It was what led to you being teased for your
meekness
But oh how fast did they all disappear down the
stream
The first drop of tears that rolled down your
cheeks
Was all I needed, for me to decide to become your
cane
As the tear left a trail down your cheek as
streaks
I realised we were both the same
Putting up a stronger self to not reveal our darkest
scars
But as soon as we healed each others broken
hearts
All the little ragged edges soon became stars
And turning all the broken parts into thousand quartz
