The Girl Who Wears a Mask
Every morning when I get up- I reach for my mask,
and why do I want to hide myself, you ask?
I hide my regret and forever, ever pain,
I wear a mask with a smile so I don't go insane.
So my family and friends will think I am fine,
I laugh and shine and tell them my life is divine;
no one knows behind this mask is a girl shattered,
my heart and soul ever tattered and battered.
Oh why, why is my love but a name engraved,
and why, why could my baby not be saved;
I wear this happy mask to hide my broken heart,
but deep, deep within me dwells the sweet part.
