I've had this mask on for soo long,
That it no longer feels Wrong.
An integral part of Me it has come to be,
I no longer will let myself be Me,
For the secrets that are Underlying,
Are the truths that I keep Denying.
Not a single soul has seen me Unmask,
If they do, They will take a step back,
Because beauty is far from what the Mask hides,
And Disgusting is what they will think I am Inside.
My loved ones will never look at me the Same,
I'am petrified they will cast me out of their Frame.
Loneliness is not something that one Craves,
If Unmasked, it will be the only companion standing at my Grave.
These Secrets that I hold,
Should forever remain Untold,
For once they are unleashed,
I will become Obsolete.
