The Mask
January 4, 2022
It’s the easy way out
Solves people problems
Can cause relief of suffering
But pain to others
Death can be joyous to some
But heartbreaking to others
Though people may want you to live
They may not see the mask
You wear around them
So they can’t see
The true feelings of torture
That hides underneath.
