You'd never know it just to look-
For today her heart is no open book,
Joking laughing all the while
On her face painted that same planted smile...

Oh sure a helping hand she'll lend
A kind word or a greeting she'll send;
ALways there with a kind word or gesture
Not one to judge, or ever to lecture

But inside an emptiness is lurking about
A woman who guesses she'll always have doubts
But for a stranger she'd walk a mile
Wearing that same ole plastered on smile.

In her heart she feels if she tries
hard enough long enough her spirit will rise
SO she keeps pushing and onward she goes
Wearing that smile so that nobody knows....
