A Mask

The mask

Can't hide everything.

I stand here smiling at you.

I look so bright from head to shoe,

But what you don't see

Is that I don't feel this free.

I feel like I'm trapped in an endless emotional jail.

My life has been a fail.

I'm losing everything,

And it hurts more than a bee sting.

I might comment "haha" on Facebook,

But I'm really just crying, and you don't care to look
