I Wear the Mask

The hurt, pain, and sadness concealed,
hiding within the mask.
Showing smiles and laughter in place of sorrow,
hiding behind the mask.
As tears roll down my face I cry,
wiping them away from my eye.
Hiding them so noone can see,
hiding behind the mask.

Walking around in this tough exterior,
just wanting to scream.
My life seems as if it's an abyss,
going nowhere it seems.
I'm falling apart.
Deeper and deeper into the dark.
Behind the mask I am but a lonely girl.
Behind the mask I hide my world.
