The Mask

The Mask

I am aware of my mask
I have tried to take it off many times
Yet it continues to find me
It seems to be stuck
Unable to be removed
Hiding the pain
Covering the fear
With the mask
Those don’t see
The scars behind it
My mask changes me
No one can see my emotion
With the mask
I can be what they want me to be
Happy
With the mask
I am hurting
Yet I will not remove the covering
I don’t want them to see me
Masking my cares
I care greatly
Removing the mask
I lose control
Too many feelings
Wounds fresh
Only to be lashed
For what my face really shows
Putting on the mask
Protects me
Yet continues to punish me
