Masked Thoughts

Masked thoughts kept hidden from the world

They house a world of their own, one of a little girl

She is troubled by the river of life and its complicated current

The rapids of growing up are all too apparent 

Troubled waters, set lines to fish out the troubled daughters

Fathers, can be animals, consuming childhood, the cannibals 

Feeding off on depression, cutting deep to bleed relief 

This is reality for one little girl, don't disbelieve 

The tide of hormones, creating war zones

Full of drugs and teenage boys 

Followed by unfiltered noise and false salvation 

So she further indulged in self mutilation 

The vessel of hope glimmered deep within her mind 

B******s showed up pretending to be kind 

Like her father they had no moral incline 

Just set out to reel in a troubled fish and dine 

So she wrote an escape within the tear covered pages 

Of happier times and beautiful places 

in her own little world she controlled the pieces 

masked thoughts she dreams, in that moment her torment ceases
