The Mask
September 15, 2017
It's a mask that’s what I call it,
And a mask is what you see,
I smile at you and I laugh like I'm ok,
But if I took off my mask you'd walk away,
The world isn't ready for me so that’s why I hide,
Under this mask that consumes me and my pride,
But I'll be ok because I've dealt with the pain,
The pain that is slowly driving me insane.
