Mask

The more and more of herself begins to fade
She tried to keep a mask up
To keep others worries at bay
They say she’s cheery
Oh so happy they say
When she goes quiet some days
They start to question her
Telling her she’s not herself
So she puts back up that mask
That mask to hide her feelings.
The more and more she begins to fade
She tries to smile to keep everyone happy
She tries and tries to keep up with the cheer
It’s becoming hard, behind those eyes are sadness
She closes the curtains and masks her feelings
for them.
They can’t know that she is not happy.
It will only hurt them. She keeps them happy to please them
Keeps her mask on, but it’s starting to crack
She isn’t allowed to feel
The more and more she begins to fade.
So she will mask her feelings.

It's okay to feel sad, it's an emotion and needs to be expressed. Every emotions are valid we don't don't have to fake something that isn't. Other people can't understand that. We can't always be happy, we are humans.
