Mask

I hide behind a mask because I don't want you to see the real me
These masks come in layers each one more different than the next one
These masks are what I've become and not what I was
They hide my fears and my secrets
Some masks are painful and some are happy
You hurt me I put another one on to hide it
I am scared but I don't show it
I have learned to listen to the masks and forget what I use to be
I'm not ready yet but one day I will see what I truly was and not who I am today
They whisper to me and tell me lies and each one sticks to me and I don't know who to believe
I need help and will see one day I'm a perfect person and not the monster I became
