Bayan Mirza Poems

Smile, and the world smiles back at you,
Smile, even if you don't have to,
Smile, even if pain is devastating,
Smile, even if grief is incapacitating,
...

There's nothing I should ever say,
Since they won't get it anyway,
It matters not that they never did,
Or if they ever will one day,
...

For just this one night
Is it okay if I cry?
Everything's alright
Don't bother asking why
...
