Behind My MASK

Behind My MASK

A Poem by Lettie

It's funny how you think you know me,
when really you don't.
When I am around you,
I wear a smile and pretend to be happy,
when in reality I' just not.
There are things that you have no idea about,
things that I try so hard to cover up.
I'm a different person when I'm with you
and I shove my secret down to be unseen.
So in reality you may think you know the real me,
but guess again my friend,
because I'm not ready to show my true self
to you or anyone else.
so for now,
I'll hide
behind my mask,
and hope for a brighter day,
when finally I'll be removed from this
masquerade .
