Masks can either
Make or break someone.
My mask
Almost flawlessly covers all my
Hidden sorrows, anger, and insanity.
A bright and cheerful smile here,
A bright and cheerful laugh there.
But beneath that exterior,
Lays the most darkest thoughts.
Where no one can imagine
What goes on in 'there.'
My eyes are the windows
To nothing and everything.
My eyes give almost
Nothing away.
"Stop hiding from me," he'd say..
Without my mask,
I am nothing.
Without my mask,
I am stripped naked and vulnerable
Against everything.
"Stop hiding from me," he'd say...
I won't stop hiding
Until you stop hiding.
My mask is all
I have..
This is a bit of my everyday life... The mask that is super glued to me that even I deceive myself. "He" refers to the one person who truly understood me and always attempted to strip down my walls, to no avail.
