Ever hidden behind a mask of smiles? Trying to hide the feelings deep inside Protecting others from your harshest trials, while internally you feel like should have died? Daily life with chronic illness is hard, Plans become difficult to make and keep. Somehow you learn how to put up your guard, Learning to smile, when you just want to weep. Your smiles can also be trained to conceal Pain, anger, hunger, nausea, and defeat Protecting your loved ones from the real deal Fighting rough battles while being discreet. These very smiles may not tell the whole truth But share emotions you want to display. Since honest expression may seem uncouth and strength's perceived when a smile lights your way. A mask of smiles may succeed to hide pain Yet sadly creates emotional strain.
