Mask

Mask

A Poem by Lunar Lightning
"

Everyone has a mask.... admitting it is the only problem we seem to have...

"

You smile so brightly, so full of joy

You fight back those tears you know you should cry

Afraid of what happens when they all know the truth

Afraid of the looks, the pity, the worry, the pain

Now look at you, cought in your web of lies

How do you plan to esape?

They are starting to see what you really are

You are starting to feel what you tried to hide

And now I am so sad to say, dear girl......

We are one and the same

again, i like it. short and sweet and straight to the point. we do indeed all wear a mask and sometimes it becomes so much a part of who we are that it's almost no longer an act. good job here as well.
