Makeup and a Veil
Just beneath the cover i imagine i am safe!
Not having to worry about pain,shame or issues!
Because i'm so engulfed it makes it so comfortable and so easy to hide!
So convient i don't have to worry about pride because its so safely tucked away!
Don't have to face the fact that while i'm crying and slowly dying!
This false sense of security is just a temporary hiding place where i can put on my
brave face!
At times i might appear to have it altogether but just beneath the look i'm a "Jacked
Up Hot Mess"!
As i slowly began to peel away layers i finally find me!
