poem A Smile

A smile is a mask i wear every day
I put it in place to say i'm ok
A quick witted comment a laugh here and there
mainly for people who don't really care
What lies underneath stays hidden away
To very few people the truth i will say
But once in a while some one will come by
And see past the smile to the pain in my eyes
I say that i'm fine,they smile and they say
I know that you are but are you really ok
