My mask

by Skye   Apr 6, 2006


I wear a mask to hide from u, u don't know the things I do.

When u look at me , its not the real me that you are seeing, u only see what I want u to see. I want u to see the happy me, the me that makes you think everything is okay.

But the real me is very sad and depressed, I always wish that I was dead. I can hear that voice in the back of my head, It tells me to love, but it doesn't realize my heart is dead.

I try to forget all of my past, everything is part of my past, everything that didn't last.

I wear a mask to hide my self, I wear a mask to avoid the eyes, I wear a mask to ignore the questions, I wear a mask to avoid the lies.

I push you away, please don't try to get close, I'm scared of your thoughts, I'm scared to get close.

You don't know what I think, you don't know how I feel, I just don't know how to deal.

So I wear a mask to try and escape, I just want to get away, you think that I'm happy, you think I'm okay,

They truth of it is I just want to escape!
