Mask

Sorrow

Pain

Depression

That's how I've grown

But society doesn't accept that

- So I hide

I put on my happy face every day

A mask ~

To hide my agony

But the problem is:

I've hidden so long,

I don't remember who I am

Or what I am anymore

I've been hidden for a while now

Tucked away in the darkness of my mind

Only showing one emotion

Ironic,

It's the one that I'll never really know

A mask of the never-ending smile -

And without it I'm exposed

Naked to the world of grief and anguish

An easy target

So I'll just keep it on

And no one will ever know

Who I really am ~

Not even me
