The mask she wears….

Her mask is always in place
guarding her precious face
from her feelings showing through
and you seeing the truth…..

For it might scare you away
it’s easier to stay
covered in this mask
so that things will stay and last…..
mysterious and shy
her real self has died
so her mask hides the damage
that surrounds her all around…..

Do you want to know
who will truly show
if the mask is removed
would it bother you
or make you love her more…….

One day we may see
the mask that is me
the hurt that is she
the way to calm her fears
and wipe away her tears…….
