What’s behind the smile

Everything isn’t always what it seems

You can’t jusdge a book by its cover is what I’ve always heard. Or no matter how tough it get u gotta keep moving forward. You may pass by someone and think all is well and good. Because they always smile and seem happy no matter how their mood But what if they’re not and the smoke is fake. What if they prayed if in the morning they didn’t wake. What if there felt no one cares at all What if self harming was in their thoughts. So remember to always take time To look much deeper than the smile and make sure everything is good cause sometimes people are misunderstood!
