My Little Lie

Underneath the makeup and perfume, there lies a secret me still unknown to you. I am alive and yet ive died, and my life is like this every day. I try to change but end up insane, and in the end I lay slain.

So inside my self, I hide this from you, so afraid you would leave. I only wanted you to know losing you would be the destruction of my world. So inside i hide and live with myself to keep you believing my little lie.
