I meant to tell you
But I didn't know you'd reach out before I would
You're saying you feel the same and
That you want us to try figuring it out together
How could i say no to that?
Half excitement
And half fear
Why take your words back?
Why limit the love?
Today I will smile
Even though it hurts, I'll smile
When I am with you
It's as if nothing happened
As if I am doing fine
That is how I should look
I will smile
I told you I'd keep it at that
That I was referring to friends
Like you were, now I smile
You are still the same
You've turned a blind eye to this
Just like I should have
The truth is,
I want more than that
I can't get over
That dazzling gaze of yours, but
Still, today I'll smile
Even though it hurts, I'll smile
When I am with you
It's as if nothing happened
As if I am doing fine
That is how it should be
I will smile
I told you that I felt like you
More than friends, less than a romance
I will lie and smile
Once I wave you goodbye
Once the sun sets, my state deteriorates
Today when I saw you I smiled
Even if it hurt, I smiled
'Till the last moment,
As if I had felt nothing
As if I had been doing fine
In order to stay with you forever
I hid my feelings
And like you, acted as if nothing happened
And I just smiled

I Smile
PoetryI changed the original lyrics of a song I really liked to make it my own story. Anyways, the song is called "I Smile" by the group Day6. I kept the flow of the story, overall, but I changed it's meaning and the message behind it.
