Pleasing,
Pretending to be happy,
Doing what I've been told,
Always doing what you say is best for the future,
I'm done with it all,
I've gone insane,
Only surviving wearing this mask,
The face of the man I once was,
Ripped off in moments of desperation,
I try to sew myself back together but it's a impossible task,
My mask I've worn for so long is torn,
My true nature revealed,
All I want in life is to be happy,
And in this world as it is right now,
That is the truly impossible task and I've lost hope in it,
This world is like me,
Broken,
Falling apart,
No one trying to put it back together,
All it takes is one,
A single person to try,
To smile,
To laugh,
To make every one happy around them,
This is the person that will allow me to live without this mask,
It's impossible though so I keep this mask,
Broken and cracked,
Waiting for the day someone will prove me to be wrong...
