I noticed while going through old pictures of me

That the ones where I
Smiled the biggest
And
Looked the happiest

Are the ones that were taken with family
Or the ones taken when I’m on alone

Never are they the ones where I’m with my friends
Never are they the ones where I’m at a party

Sure, the smiles with friends are real,
But do not and will never compare to those where I’m with my mother, father, and brother
Because they’ve always made me laugh
When no one else could.
