Masks

Masks are truly the most terrifying of things Physical or emotional we wear them like the songbird sings Everybody has one, of that there is no doubt We wear them to hide things that no one should find out Paper thin and fragile as ice Its all you need for one to think you're nice But you know that that's not right A mask is just easier than a fight When you're alone the mask comes off And while you stare at it you scoff For this is not the real you, how could it be? Nobody is normal and happy cant you see? You are broken, dark and just plain sad But you mask is purely glad A greater difference there is none And you know you aren't the only one We wear them to hide things that no one should find out Everybody has one, of that there is no doubt Physical or emotional we wear them like the songbird sings Masks are truly the most terrifying of things
