Smile

hey, you there
smile like you mean it
because despite the fact
you are alone
you work a deadend job
you are flunking out of school
you still have something to live for
you can live for the fact
you know who you are
you have a job
you have the desire to become better.

It's hard out there
facing the world alone
but everyday
you become a little better at it
one day
you'll find someone to face it with you
you'll have your dream job
you'll be done with school.
when that day comes
you'll smile
and think about the day
you only hoped your dreams would come true
