Smiles

Smiles


Wasting time on lying smiles,
On skin deep beauty, shallow miles
of success, we shyly seek,
It all turns sour and grows so weak.

What's real inside we cannot find,
No time to look, from time to hide,
Protecting broken hearts, and lives,
Defending behind drowning eyes.

Wanting desperately to come out,
And spread our wings, feel free of doubt,
We stumble, trip, are fooled by sight
of some kind of artificial light.

It's not what we are fighting for,
We'll never win this forelorn war.
Once we can all stop fooling free,
Then maybe we'll just learn to be!
