She puts on a mask
And hides herself away
This is how she starts
Every single day
Who she really is
She just does not know
She sinks a little further
Nowhere left to go
Cannot tell anyone
Lest that they may see
She's not all she plays
Not what she seems to be
Putting on a smile
The perfect little actress
So happy on the outside
But filled with emptiness.
Dreams fall broken
Upon an empty heart
Tangled in a web
A piece of her own art.
