Today's not halloween but, the mask is still there The mask I continue on and on to wear The mask that tries to hide my suffering and my pain The mask that tries to hide my guilt and my shame The mask that haunts me and makes me feel unwhole The mask that takes from me and kills my soul Why do I wear this mask and why do I look thru it Most dont, cant even see it, or just wouldnt do it is this why I wear that mask so that others can not see or is because I just really hate being me I so hate this life I am living and the way its all a mess I so hate it so I lay here in my mind and dont bother getting dressed Just put on the mask and it'll be ok I say to myself but then I feel non existant like a fairy tale elf why is it so hard to beat this depression that pulls me down why does my mask show a smile when all I do is frown Im just tired right now and feeling so alone Maybe Ill just stay right here shadowed by this gnome Why am I a nothing at times like these for to feel is too much and I fall to my knees I feel so hopeless and so much defeat I cant even stand up on my own two feet How do others do it walk this life this way where do you find the stregnth to just stay Peace and happiness to us all, Venus |

Brilliant write Venus1974! I think most of us wear a mask so we can drudge through each day so you're not alone there. I can certainly relate. |
