I was once sad and lonely,
Having nobody to comfort me,
So I wore a mask that always smiled;
To hide my feelings behind a lie.

Before long, I had many friends;
With my mask, I was one of them.
But deep inside, I still felt empty,
Like I was missing a part of me.

Nobody could hear my cries at night
For I designed my mask to hide the lies.
Nobody could see the pain I was feeling
For I designed my mask to be laughing.

Behind all the smiles were the tears
And behind all the comfort were the fears.
Everything you think you see,
Wasn't everything there was to me.

Day by day,
I was slowly dying.
I couldn't go on,
There was something missing..

Until now I'm still searching
For the thing that'll stop my crying.
For someone who'll erase my fears,
For the person who'll wipe my tears.

But till then I'll keep on smiling.
Hiding behind this mask I'm wearing.
Hoping one day I can smile,
Till then, I'll be here.. waiting.

I feel like im dying in the inside and no one can hear me .I scream I shout I plead for help but it's like I'm stuck in a endless sea. All I want is to be heard by my mom. To be kissed by that special someone. To be loved by my father and to be remembered by my sisters. I try to not to think about it I try to smile I even laugh all the time to keep me and them going but it only last a little while before it comes back. All I know is I HAVE to keep going and I HAVE to be strong especially for the people I love
