Smile

Three months ago, when it first hit
You were all alone, ready to quit
He broke your heart, left you with it
His reason wasn't even legitimate
But you were strong, you stood your ground
Looked within yourself, and there you found
A person you knew you couldn't let down
You rebuilt your life, back together you bound
And now you smile, you are okay
You accept that you have dreary days
But you smile and wipe those tears away
Open up wide, and these words you say
"I am beautiful because I am me"
There's nobody else you need to be
Rejoice because of your individuality
And be happy you have your sanity
There's no better gift than love in this world
Boy upon boy, or girl upon girl
But don't let that be the thing that cures
Every other hardship that's tossed your way
You thought that would rhyme, but hey
Life can be unpredictable
But that's what makes it beautiful
....and so are you
