it's funny how whenever i feel down
i still can find it within me to smile and put on a strong front.
the poker face syndrome.. it can be called.
when i was at my lowest. the people who picked me up were more often than not the ones i never expected. these 'strangers' stood by me and lent me their ears and strength.. even though it was only for a brief respite.
but that moment of sanctuary gave me what i needed to carry on.
the irony in it was that most didn't know that i was down or anything. a common question..
are you always this cheerful?
what a revelation it would be... if they only knew...what lies beneath..
