Do You
By Kent ©

Do you see my crying, behind the unseen smile?
I can say its there while yet it’s not, for it has be awhile.
Life is great, I’m happy now, that’s what they want to hear,
Put on this fake face and smile again, sure to hide the tear.

It’s for the best we tell ourselves, to just get through each day,
And try not thinking on a useless life, of what was taken away.
We made our own choices but with others in mind but that don’t seem to matter,
It does nothing to help even if it were true, maybe just makes us sadder.

But we buy into the story that life goes on and start another day,
Brick by brick we surround ourselves, at some point it’s there to stay.
Do you hear my crying; I’ve not hide it very well,
But for the sake of others if asked, I’ll say I’m doing swell.

What a sad way to live. Yet just how I've lived most of my life.

But no more...

But I like this part that you put!

When someone ask how I am doing and I am having a crappy day I go

Not worth a shit but thanks for asking ;) LMAO at least I am telling the truth,.

Yea that's true, even though most ask it and in reality couldn't give a shit.

I can't stand it when people do that. If you don't care, don't ask! At least you're honest. I'd rather someone just didn't ask, than to pretend they care when you know they don't.

If I ask how you're doing, you can bet your sweet bippy that I care and want to know.
