paste-on smile Options

[akjsd]

Before she went to bed, she'd brush her teeth and hair,
she'd scrub her face clean, using all her utmost care .
Then she'd look into the mirror, to examine her reflection,
and there her face was bare, wiped clean of all deception .
There drawn upon her face was hurt, all her troubles of the day,
the water had washed the glue of her paste-on smile away .
And her two tired tear-brimmed eyes were looking back at her,
with a voice full of defeat, she whispered to the mirror,
" Dear Mirror, i look at you, and i cant recognize who i see,
with her lifeless expression and dead eyes, could this girl truly be me ? "
And as night went on, she cried herself to sleep,
for throughout her day, she had gone through much grief .
And in the morning, she'd wake up, brush her teeth and hair,
she'd scrub her face clean, using all her utmost care .
She'd take the time to apply make-up, to hide the pain etched on her face,
and as she walked outdoors, she'd make sure her paste-on smile was in place .
