A forced smile
In the falling rain
I touch my face
And feel a smile
But when I look at my reflection
I see tears, a crying face
I claw at the water
Disbelieving of the image before me
The water calms and the ripples disappear
I am smiling, once again
But then, what were the tears?
Was the crying face simply an illusion?
What does a smile mean, anyways?
A forced smile
In the falling rain
