Living in a lie
You wake up with that mask
It seals you from the world
From the hateful glares of people
You walk along, expressionless
The mask lets nothing through
People call you moody, unresponsive
And yet it slips when you see her
Opens a crack the size of the world
To let in pain
The hole doubles in size.
You go home
Where you know you can't get help
But you hide from it
Still with that mask
You can forget for a while
And overnight the mask heals
Sealing again into your diamond prison
For nothing is real
Without her nearby
And even the hateful glares of people
Cannot touch you.
very poetic, and probably relateable to alot of people
ReplyDeleteI like this one. It reminds me of some people I know. ;-)
