The Mask
I'm building a mask Don't touch my face I'm contagious Can't share my pain The stare is suffocating Everyone chips in They try to relate From places they've been And I don't want your shoulder I don't need your hand Although I've fallen down Someday I'll stand Gazes all the same The lot of you gawk Tragedy is Tragic But pity me not I'll smile and seem fine When I'm done with this mask And they'll all carry on A thing of the past But I'll carry the pain Won't end quite as fast |

| A good friend of mine constantly says to me "Even the strong get a little weak sometimes" and lets not forget "you dont have to be strong ALL the time" I hate asking for help, I hate to cry, I absolutely refuse to cry in anyone else's presence, and when I'm dying inside I smile like its going out of style. However anyone close to me knows this is the way I deal with pain, so I can't really say its a mask. Tragedy is tragic indeed..
