Scars

We hide the scars that burned and bled Inside we are all covered in red The pain we bare As we smile and hope no one stares Yes, we hide the scars with a smile No one knows how many tears have been shed Or how many days we couldn’t get out of bed We pray That no one can see through this mask We hope this mask will never decay Or break Torn Broken Bleeding Will this nonsense keep repeating? Stay hidden Stay out of sight Quietly Step into the sunlight
