this is something that speaks about people and how we try to cover up ur weaknesses
A smile doesn’t necessary mean that the person is happy,
A tear is not always an indicator of sadness or grief,
We are all gifted with a mutli emotional capability,
Some people are so good with this talent they are almost mask faced,
And a fake smile lies hanging there on their faces,
Others aren’t so good at it,
And you can see the sadness shine through their fake smiles,
But if you care to look closer,
If you care to focus,
You will start to notice,
A person who laughs the most deep inside is the saddest,
He makes people laugh the most,
look around everyone is laughing but for him he lays in a moment of silence,
A person who is the most sociable and most outgoing, deep inside is the one so insecure,
Watch him fly from one group of people to another,
Ask him about his worst nightmare,
It would be being left alone or not being able to fit in,
Look around in a funeral,
You will see plenty of people crying,
But there will always be one or two who lay in silence,
These are the ones in true grief, these r the ones suffering from the true loss,
We all try so hard to cover up our weaknesses,
We build a shell around that weak point to hide it from others,
Although the shell seems strong its very thin and highly fragile,
Only if you peer closer you will see the person's weakness and insecurities,
If you care ,
You will look,
If you care,
you will notice,
if you care,
you will be curious to look inside the cocoon to discover that person,
its nt an excuse that a person is multi layered that’s why you do nt know them,
Because its always the one who pretends to be the strongest to be the softest on the inside,
People who close on their cocoon always long for someone to peer in,
Once you take the step inside,
Their insides will come pouring out,
It's not an excuse not to know someone because they are complicated,
It's not hard to look inside,
Only if you care,
Only if you focus,
You will notice,
That not every smile is necessary from happiness,
That not every tear is true sorrow,

And that it can all be a cover up for something so soft in a person,
