Walk Tall

The world is bright and joyous and dreamy

The lights are shining and everything's holy

You see the smiles and sparkles in eyes

You want to smile and your face tries

You hear the crackers and the laughters

You too try to laugh till it shatters

You smile, you laugh and you shine

You make it look all sweet and fine!

In your heart you still feel dark

And the ghosts of betrayal still bark

You hide the pain and show them your beauty

To not let those tears escape is your duty

And still somehow a drop tickles down

You too lose the patience's crown

 You see the darkness beneath the light

And again the heart fills with fright

What all things can you do now?

You need to hide it all, but how?

You simply wipe those tears and walk tall

You pretend to smile, fooling all

That's the life, that's the  truest kind of essence

That's how you they see your  shiny presence

So you tried, you loved and you lost

Walk tall as you have survived at last!
