Just a smile, and everything was ok.
It started unconvincingly,
An insincere grin pasted on my face.
But it snuck its way in, deep inside...
I smiled and it changed me.
And just like that,
I thought I had found something,
Something great.
A way out, a way up,
A way to make everything ok again.
So I smiled... and it changed me.
I wanted to share it with everyone.
And so I did, it seemed to work.
I smiled and it changed me
And everything was ok
A little strange, but ok..
But it didn't last
I was wrong...
It wasn't real...
There was no miracle cure...
I wanted it to be, but it wasn't..
So there I was...
Smiling...
An insincere smile...
Hoping it would make everything ok...
Hoping it would change me...
But it didn't.

spaced-out, mas?
well, is it 'that grin' u're talking about?:) i understand...(sotoy!).
put on happy face. smile cures only if u really believe in it.
kami sayang sekali sama bondan! (entah kenapa tiba2 pengen ngomong itu impulsively,hehe. mungkin aku jg autis. atau obsesif kompulsif)
jangan unhappy lg. jangan fake a smile. *hugs*
