"I Wear A Mask"
Author's note: Who's up for some stories? Comment down if you wanna read some.

I wear a mask when I go out
I flash a smile, the one that they won't doubt
"She's alright," that's what comes out from their mouth.
Not knowing thw real reason of what I'm smiling about

Behind those smile is a weary soul
I smile about my problems, to anyone I can't console
I smile about how my heart was torn and left with a hole
I smile about my dreams and unachieved goal

My smile was there amidst of it all
I act tough even when I'm about to fall
I am like a kingdom with a crumpling wall
I am like an empty corridor and empty hall


When I step out of my sanctuary
I always wear my mask to make it look like I'm happy
Plastering a smile even though I am weary
Making them believe that I'm still cheery
