How do you comfort the one crying on the inside? You can't find the words Nothing seems to sound right You find yourself captured by that smile as if there are no traces of bereft not even for a while How can anyone be that strong with so much pain to hide? Sometimes fate feels so wrong and one can lose the fight It's that moment you see how beautiful that smile can be despite not out of joy but surviving tragedies How can you be the comfort for the one grieving on the inside? It's like they carry the weight of the world without displaying their plight Do you want to? How, when you don't always understand everything? They're made of thick, strong shells full of past battle scars There's no time to dwell just consistent protection over their already badly, broken heart For now, only two lame, little words you can only offer while silently praying that they're given an endless divine consolation: "Take care."
