Your Tears My Smile

You lie!

The truth always eludes you

No one does it better

you’ll say anything you need to



You know! 

You know exactly what you’re doing 

more than anyone else 

you hate yourself and sit there brooding



Been pampered all your life 

but words can cut like a knife 

and when they do

Your tears, my smile



You cry! 

Like a five-year-old child

at the drop of a dime

I see the welling in your eyes



You cheat! 

You’re cheating on repeat

you’re hollow on the inside

but you think you’ve got it beat



I’ve never met somebody

with so much hate I’m sorry

but you’re just spoiled and rotten

and will be soon forgotten

until that day

Your tears, my smile

Your tears, my smile



You lie!

The truth always eludes you

No one does it better

you’ll say anything you need to



I found you to be vacant

you tantrums escalated

your sulking and self-loathing 

got tired and annoying

Been pampered all your life 

but words can cut like a knife 

and when they do

Your tears, my smile

Your tears, my smile

Your tears, my smile

Your tears, my smile
