It's a Lie

I'm telling myself I am fine, I say I am not going to give up, I do, My mask has hidden me long enough Though it keeps the truth inside me, I will keep it bottled up, To seem I am all okay, Nobody can see Me cry, me wanting to die, Throughout these months of nervous breakdowns, The shock of my truth, Only I feel, Only I see, Only I bare it alone, Without this mask, you will see me as a mess, I need to do better at hiding, These feelings never subside, For only it's a lie.
