We smile for the camera,
though sadness oozes from our hearts.
We brighten our smiles,
wear the badge of happiness
to tell a story of joy to the world,
to show our happiness.
The world receives our joy.

We wear the masks
for a moment with the camera.
The world longs for the happiness,
and so do we,
for we know that we need it too,
in our lives behind the camera.
