Drip. Drip. I cry the tears I normally hide In a disguise I wear around others. A mask to cover The pain The tears So my troubles Don’t become Their burden. All alone And I might think How easy I can do it. Just a few lines On my never-cut wrists But I’m too scared. So as I become social The mask goes back on And I seem fine When only I knew That’s a lie.
