I feel that many people are hidden by "masks". Here is a Little bit about mine |
I want to stop acting Stop being what I'm not I wish I was that brave But words are knives that traumatize They cut deeper than steel My masks remain in place They must so no one sees The me I hide from everyone My masks are my comfort My way of being never afraid I change my masks to never be known I have so many as to never let me be seen When someone gets close, my masks go up I try to hide what I wish I could show I want to be close to them I want them to know The one inside nobody knows I am not afraid of being rejected I am afraid of being accepted Being a friend through all troubles Can i help others be themselves When I've worn so many masks that I've never known myself I wear the masks so no one knows the one inside The child afraid fearing everything All alone he has to hide My feelings and my thoughts are gone I know only my masks Never the same yet never different I feel the mask I wear My friends can't tell what I feel inside I cannot let them My sanctuary and my Hell are for me alone This is my torment my greatest problem Show my friends the me inside and risk my security Or keep wearing the masks and lose myself I can feel me fading Being erased from all thoughts Memories of the unknown fade quickly with time Leaving behind fragments of my broken life Easily littered with the lies of my million masks |
