Mask

Mask

Hiding under this mask is a beautiful young girl,
Hiding her scars,
Hiding her pain,
She will never reveal.

Everyone teases her,
Calling her 'emo' and 'weird'
When all she wants is someone to understand her,
Someone to be there for her.

Hiding as she passes everyone,
No one can see her beautiful face
Or her horrid scars.
