"Mask"
When this mask I wear falls away
Where do I run?
Where will I hide?
I don't let them ever see
The true me
The complete me
Fear is why I hide
Of ridicule
Of rejection
Perhaps there is more to it
My nature?
My destiny?
I do not have the answer
But does anyone ever?
Do they know why they cower?
Behind images for defenses
Afraid to be themselves
Why are the confident
And why are the individual
Lashed out at?
Causing the rest to be even more like clones
We should be free
Yet day by day
We sinker deeper
Deeper in the quicksand of society
"Think"
Do I really want to know what they think of me?
Yes, the stares and whispers are to much
No, I don't think I could stand more reality
I could burst from the pressures
It's painful
Knowing if you knew the truth
Whispers would become shouts and screams
So in the end I settle for the false comfort
Of a few well meant complements
"Pain"
Pain is just natural now
I have no future
But behind my blank stare
A true person lies
It cannot surface
I shoved her back
I long to be free
To feel love not hate
Joy would come at last
There is little here now
Days of hope
Are my sweet dream
