Girl On a Mask

The room is dark but the light of the window. She wants to hide Hiding herself The words she hears makes her want to cover her face Covering herself from existing. She thinks that the world is against her She wishes to become somebody else She grabs a white mask with a mouth, Nose, and eyes. The mask is pale like a piece of paper She writes the words that she hears from the world She cannot ignore the words that are tearing her All she wrote are words like “fat”, “ugly” , “retard”, “disgrace”, and “Nothing”. She wears the mask She is no longer herself All the flesh from her face is gone The mask remains on her face.
