The Reason For The Mask
By cryingangel
I wear a mask everyday. So I can hide the pain inside. And smile when I want to cry. When the mask comes off, the truth will be seen. Something I can't even believe. Many people wear masks, All for different reasons. I wear a mask so I can be who I'm not. Live in my own little fantasy. I am afraid if the mask was removed. My friends would turn their backs. They want someone who is cool and fun. Not someone who crys or has problems. We always try to impress someone. Come on, you know what I mean. Can't tell me that you never have. Thats really hard to believe. I wish I could remove the mask. And let myself come out. But part of me wants to impress someone. Part of me wants to be liked. A lot of me just wants to be loved. Just like everyone else.This was written after many people wanted to know about my other poem "The Mask"...so I finally wrote it and decided to post it. Tell me what you think!
