I hide all the pain and all the hurt
I hide behind a mask
a mask of happiness and glee
a mask of indifference and aloofness
but inside I'm a mess
a hurricane of emotion
a black hole of sorrow
but my mask stays in place
not faltering or breaking
hiding the child that weeps and wails
I hide behind a mask
of deception and lies
but it has been getting weaker
Letting people in
Letting them glimpse this storm
this storm of pain and longing
heartbreak and falling
my mask must not break or crack
must not falter even for a second
then all will be exposed
this bone deep loneliness
this pain wracked heart
but I will not allow anyone to see the true me
the one locked inside
the pain I hide, the heartbreak that resides
all behind a mask of indifference and lies!!
