BEHIND THE SMILE

Behind The Smile
are his countless tears
trying to drown the hurt
Is a web of fears
clouding his heart
He's stacking up sacks of prayers
Just so from him the loved ones never depart!

Behind The Smile
His soul is weary
of the burdens he's constantly asked to carry
His mind is lost in a maze of thoughts
Of how to break itself free
His body is crying out for a break
before it itself is made to break

Behind The Smile
Are the frowns
of all his dark lonely nights
Are the weeps
of all his shattered dreams
And of his broken heart

Behind The Smile
He is
Lusting for love
Fighting for peace
Working for rest
Wishing for hope
Weeping for a smile

Behind The Smile
he is asking
everyone under it's glow,
He is asking
all who are energized by it's flow,
He is asking
all who in it's light now can see where to go ...
why can't they see what lies
Behind The Smile!
