They say
What’s real between
A smile and scar
When heart hides
The pain
That splinters within
.
They say
What’s real between
A distress and solace
When soul suffers
But face is calm
For the piercing within
.
They say
What’s real between
A thorn and flower
When eyes weep
And lips smile
The struggle within
.
They say
What’s real between
A lament and laughter
When love betrays
And helplessness remains
The sorrow within
.
So tell them that
What’s real
Isn’t always true
