Behind the mask
#WritcoPoemPrompt99
And your laugh is as bright as the sun...
In rhyme, whispering, breezing
That's what they say
They say smile
You put on a mask
Hiding the pain
Hiding the loneliness
Hiding the fact of never being chosen
I love you they say
I will never leave they say
But you have heard it too much
They all leave
You put on a smile
Hiding the doubt
Hiding the fact of being scared
Hiding the fact of opening up
Hiding your trust issue
Hiding the fact that your heart is aching
Hiding the pain of knowing if anyone shows up
There would be no second thought in choosing them
Your heart is like a broken plate
That could never be fixed
All you want to be loved
Here you are again putting on a fake smile
You have become skilled at this
