When asked, she smiles and says,
“I’m okay, thank you, good day”.
Half moon circles adorn her wrist,
hidden under the long sleeves of her tees.
Dark circles under her eyes,
concealed by a lavish amount of make up.
Pain in her smile
disguised into beautiful words.
Emptiness in her heart
veiled through a beautiful piece of art.
When asked, she smiles and says,
“I’m okay, thank you, good day”.

This poem was very sad, I really liked it though. It’s true that a lot of people dress themselves up in smiles and positivity but on the inside can be deeply hurting. I found this to be a very honest reflection of reality. Thank you for sharing ❤

The wavelength between us is not so far apart lovely, as I read this… I went back and read my older post “Real eye realize Real lies” and we think so much alike in a way. It’s so easy to cover pain with a robotic response to a typical question such as “ How are you?” There’s so much more underneath the painting that people don’t know, some don’t know the sacrifice behind the smile or the hardships behind the “hellos”. If people only knew the beauty behind the art, they would appreciate it more and care if it was really okay. What a masterpiece.♥️♥️
