I have a mask,
A mask of porcelain,
A mask to cover my anger,
A mask to hide my pain,
A mask to conceal my hatred,
A mask behind which I bide,
Waiting with baited breath,
Waiting for someone to see through,
Waiting for someone to see my pain,
My anger
My hatred,
Someone to realise I am hurt,
Someone to realise I am furious,
Someone to see my love,
But my mask conceals all,
Except my eyes,
Which burn behind my mask,
My mask of plain,
White,
Porcelain

Good work Rachel! I really enjoyed the poem.

Hope to read more wonderful poetry!

Sadness, like happiness, has its own majestic beauty and must be embraced as a valid emotion, not pushed down as an abnormality.
