Sometimes when I smile, the pain seems less
But it will never erase the fact that I'm not at my best.
Sometimes when I smile, the world stands still,
And I have to admit that I am at the bottom of the hill.
Sometimes when I smile, the tears come to my eyes,
And I have to admit that nothing changes even as time flies.
Sometimes when I smile, my heart accepts it all,
Because it knows that better can come after a fall.
But sometimes when I smile, there is joy in me
Because I am happy and it is clear to see,
That just because we smile, things will appear differently.
So sometimes... I'll just SMILE!
