Everyday I wake,
with tear stained cheeks
quickly I wash my face
trying to hide my fear,
sorrow and pain,
For my young age,
I have seen far too much.
I hide behind a pretty smile
never letting others see
the wound in my soul
where happiness was.
I try not to break,
try not to cry,
have to hold it all in
It’s been years,
but I can’t let it go,
the past creeps and crawls
trying hard to break through,
but I don’t let it,
I suppress it back
behind my mask.

umm i have on one of my poems a line much like your poem. masks are needed, but try oh try so hard to not let it define you. you define you and nothing else.
