Behind a mask
My face is blank from practice
My feelings well hidden
Deep within my heart a chamber is filled with emotions
Overflowing from never having been let out.
Until the point comes
When they're too much to bear
So I give in.
And alone in my room
They come out
In tears
Then I pick myself back up
Wipe the evidence of tears from my face
Put on a face smile
And walk back into the world
Like nothing is wrong.
The truth stays behind
Locked within the confides of my bedroom.
My escape
