From truly meaning it

For more than a moment

Oh, how you say my smile is contagious

It makes me want to keep smiling because then you would smile back at me.

And that would be a reason for me to smile for days and days.

My smile may be contagious, but your presence is all I need to breathe and be.

And one day, I know you will see me as more than that smile you love to see, but today isn’t that day. But I’ll smile anyway, for I’m alive, and today feels so good not to be happy.
