I know why people act happy
People are not happy
They are depressed
Depressed because the have lost
Lost something important
Something important to them
They didn't want to lose it
But they did
They had no control
Depression is a form of grief
People seem happy
When they are not
I understand the facade you've captured here, seeming happy when inside you're feeling great loss and desperation. I would imagine some people try to smile through the pain in hopes that eventually the feeling will be genuine.
