Masked
September 12, 2011
Behind my mask I can hide,
I can say what ever I want with out getting hurt,
It’s like my glasses,
It’s like my makeup,
It’s like my closed heart and mind,
I’m not afraid,
I’m not hurt,
I’m alright with my mask,
Letting my mask fall of like a façade,
My tears fall down,
My heart is broken,
My mind is torn,
I put my mask on and get ready for another day,
Another time,
Another place,
I’m okay with my mask,
And perhaps someday I can say it with out wearing my mask.
