Another day, another mask. Do they really hide anything anymore? Those who care enough to look surely can’t be fooled, can they? The masks are wearing thin, the scars and tears are starting to show again. And, she just can’t hide the pain in her eyes.
So, maybe no one is really looking.
This one is for tomorrow.
A great big smile on the outside. While she’s broken and dying on the inside.

One reply on “Masks”
People are always telling me to smile, like smiling is going to just take away all the hurt and pain. Well I’ve tried that. I’ve tried hiding my sorrows and covering the sadness in smiles, and what I’ve learned is that when it hurts this much inside – your heart always has a way of showing it, no matter how many masks you wear.
