im ALONE in this world,
facing ALL my fears,
with one FAKE smile
and a bunch of useless tears
yet above my pain,
beyond its tatters and tears,
stands an invisible crowd
extending hands, hearts, and cares
so crying in torment,
facing great fear,
i've yet one real smile
knowing some will surely hear

Teary_me!
