The Sarcasm

When I smile its not because am happy,

but because I wonder why am still sad.

When I cry, its not because am sad,

But because am hurting

When I curse, its not because am hurting,

But because I just can’t take the pain away.

When I close my eyes, its not because am afraid,

But because am ashamed I can’t take the memories away.

When I hate myself, its not because I can’t love,

But because I can’t stop loving

And the love is memory,

And the memory pain,

The pain hurts,

And sadness prints my smile.
