Reasons To Smile

The sounds of footsteps surrounding me,
The thought of people around me,
We try our best to keep ourselves happy,
That's why I smile.

Knowing that it might spread the joy,
If I smile, someone else is there smiling with me,
Tears may fall now and then,
Erase the sadness with a simple smile.

Things become dull,
A room is darkened,
They tell me,
There's no hope for the world,
There's no use in smiling.

Why be so foolish?
Those people who have given up on life.
The main reason to smile,
Is life itself,
I smile to know that I'm still living on,
together with those I care about the most.
