Hide

I hide behind a mask

           i hide the pain

i hide the tears

....because they don't have the power to make me show them
they cant take that strength.....

i hide behind a mask
          drowning in the tears
wallowing in the pain
        trying not to hurt again

        I hide behind a mask
I cover the pain
         They cant see
         They don't play my game

I hide....
