Fake Smiles

xxxxxx

Fake smiles

They are all fake

xxxxxx

Always were

and

Always will be

xxxxxx

He is the jolly one

He's supposed to be happy

The happy-fun-go-lucky blond, known as Max Tate

xxxxxx

So, why is he so happy?

He's not

xxxxxx

You can never tell when he's happy

Can't tell when there is a genuine smile on his face

Because they're all fake

xxxxxx

All you ever see is a smile

But they're all fake

xxxxxx

His smile is fake

His soul is empty

His mind mindless

Just an empty shell without anything inside

xxxxxx

Whether he's laughing or crying, he's always smiling

His smiles are fake

Laughs are fake

Frowns are fake

He is fake

xxxxxx

He's nothing but a shadow of a once happy boy who was loved by both of his parents

But they didn't really love him

Not really they didn't

xxxxxx

They fought a lot

Didn't care how little Maxie was feeling

xxxxxx

The left each other

Left Maxie with his dad

xxxxxx

Since then, all of his smiles are fake

But he has to smile

xxxxxx

Without them people would worry about him

No one ever worried about him

Because no one paid attention

xxxxxx

The fake smiles mean he's ok

Means that no one will bother him

Means that no one will fight for him

No one will bother

xxxxxx

He's lost in a world of fake smiles because he doesn't want others to fight for him

He loves them all too much

He loves blading too much

xxxxxx

He can't let his feelings of hurt, loneliness, and pain get to him

Because then he'll have nothing left

xxxxxx

Max's fake smiles are real smiles

And his smiles are fake smiles

You figure out the meaning.
