Mask on my face protects me.
Hides me.
Binds me.

Help me to pretend.
Puting on a smile
Dont put me on trial.
You wont win this game.

My mask is a cover,
A slip,
A shield.

Its protects me,
It helps me.

Let me go about my day.
Let me on my way.
This isnt your issue.
Dont get a tissue.
I was born this way.

Hide away.
Feeling,
Truth,
Lies,
Numb,

Push it away till it is no more.
This mask is my safety net

Straight down.

Either way it kills you
When you land

Moonlight.
shining in the distance,
Illuminating the sky .

Starlight .
dancing all around,
Createing pictures in my mind.

The Man in the Moon
watching
listening
As i tell my Tale
Full of despair

I tell him my story
he understand

  Stars fill my eyes
reflecting the story of my life
That may no be joyous

Act
When you look at me I seem fine.
you tell me your day,
I tell you mine.

While at school that's how I act.
Smile on my face.
Knives in my back.
I'm not fine but I won't tell you that.

I'll keep pretending when I'm with you.
So I don't put stress on you.
I can't hurt you like you have me.

You don't see them I hide them under my pack,
pushing them farther into my back.
as I tread slowly,
weights of incurties slowing me down.

But I still smile toward you,
so I don't want to hurt you.
And,
that my dear is my biggest fear.

At first glance i look
off in a trance.
Looking in the distance,
not noticing your subtle glance

When i see you i smile back.
Forgetting what i was looking at

You turn away embarrassed,
with nothing to say

So I'll just go no about my day.
With words unspoken.
Thoughts unsaid.

Even though one word.
Even if not very imporant.
Could have saved me back then.

But insted i drown in a flood of my own thoughts.

envy,
gluttony,
greed,
avarice,
lust,
pride,
sloth,
wrath.

Does this say
Lesbian?
Gay?
Trans?

None of these are defined as sins.

then why treat us as if we aren't human?
Just because of our love interest?

God said to love.

Then why do you hate us?
We did nothing wrong.
He made us this way.
In HIS image.

So why must you judge us...
for we have all sinned in one way.

As you watch the sea,
The waves crash into you,
Your slowly drowning,
But nobody notices.

There's a boat in the distance
Friends
Famliy
Everyone you know
gather and watch you

Some ask if your ok,
If you need help.

But you're too proud to accept it.

Im fine you answer.
Evey...
Single...
Time...

But you are drowning
You want help
But its to late.

Your gone.
And you are one with the sea.

And everyone else wishes
You had

But now you can't...
Your gone...
And everyone else wishes that they tried to save you
