Once upon a time A girl who looked just fine glanced at me and smiled I called her "The Girl with a genuine smile" One fine morning She woke up in mourning. But she tried to stop herself from crying instead, wiped her tears and started smiling She greeted everyone with a smile But, If you look at her closely in the eyes, You'll realize that it was all just a lie. The girl with a genuine smile.
Days have passed, She's still the girl with a genuine smile. Her lips might tell you that she's fine But her eyes were telling otherwise.

She again, looked at me with a smile. Even tho all she wanted was to cry She was trying to keep it all inside.
Afterall, she's the girl with a genuine smile. Dont let her pretty smile fool you. And It was all just a lie She pretends to be okay, So that there's no need for her to explain. She still managed to flashed a smile She's so strong for smiling even if she's not fine With tears streaming down her face, she looked at me and started sobbing, and that's when realization hit me How come I didnt see?

And the garden will either be tended to by another gardener or will wither away. The world is so full of harsh realities that are hidden. To say that there are only a few genuine people is completely and utterly wrong. For every person there are only a few genuine people. That is correct, so in that sense, yes there are only a few genuine people but in the world there are many of them.
