Art of Pretense

They've hurt her once

They've hurt her twice

and they've struck thrice

T'was the time she turned to ice.

Sad and weary she'd gotten

for she was so heartbroken

But in order to cope with pain

the sad side she has slain.

Faced the public while smiling

the pain in the heart she was denying

Some would say it's hypocritical

but no, for her it's typical.

It's typical to hide pain 

to welcome the sun and push rain

She just pretends and then forget

erase the problem that she'd met.

Yes, it is true, I must say

that it's not easy to pretend

but it's her own way

of putting pain to an end.
