at night i take my mask off lie in bed and think of what i've said that day i think and think about all the lies i've told all the people i've fooled why is this routine me smiling away and laughing when deep down i barely can stablise my anxiety my pain my growing pressure of disgust that fills me like liquid when i wake up and drains at night when i lie down i lay the mask beside my bed the mask i've put on that day and look at it with hate i sit and stare at its contents i lie down and rack my brains for any sign of truth anything i did that day that wasnt fake but i cant think because theres that liquid of pressure and disgust some that hasnt drained and i lie here drowining drowning in my thoughts drowning in me "When i close my eyes, i remember how to smile, under my umbrella im an accomplished exile..." |

Get up and dry off in the...sun? maybe by the heater, burn the thoughts in the heat. Ashes to ashes, sust to dust and all that. Great write, as usual. Hollow. Courtney "Why are my visions so unliving with dreams? And why do I no longer care?" - Stygian |

True and searing. Who doesn't have a mask they wear? And who has never cloaked themselves in a protective lie? |
