Smiles and cries

Sashakt Tripathi 2017A7PS0051P

Lovely people all around,
Lovelier souls lost and found.
At cheap prices being sold and bought,
Hearts which were once long sought.
Someone is meant for everyone they say,
But alone you must face the obstacles on the way.
The reckless emotions, the untold fear,
Make the hurt and hate crystal clear.
Yet no one notices the fact,
That everyone’s lonely despite best friends intact.
When hurt envelopes the loving heart,
And the closeness is taken apart.
Crying eyes behind every smile,
Broken pieces of heart fragile,
Never repaired are the hearts which are broken,
Yet people express a fake love token.
Broken hearts should not be seen,
For the world laughs at what has been.
But there is one exception that will console you,
For that one person cries behind his own smiles too.
