The Truth Is....

About how even when life sucks, there are reasons to live.

The truth is if I leave,
I have no where else to go,
I have no one else to turn to,
I have nothing to keep me from hurting myself.

The truth is if I stop smiling,
If I stop joking,
If I stop laughing,
My face is going to break,
And I am going to crack.

If I do stop smiling,
And stop the joking,
And stop the laughing,
Then what am I suppossed to do?

Do I cry?
Do I scream?
Do I care?
Do I die?

The truth is,
This is all a lie,
This is all a dream,
This is all a fraud.

The truth is I have nothing.
I'm only still alive,
I still have a few more reasons to live,
To laugh,
And to smile.

I guess it's enough,
To hold out a little longer,
To help me live.
And if the outcome in the end is brighter,
Then I'll thank the world for keeping me here......
