I'm crying in silence.
My tears feel like acid running down my face.
I'm finally breaking,
cracked from so many falls.
The mask is slowly coming off,
leaving in its place a dark void.
I don't like what's underneath it.
A rancid smell fills the room,
and cockroaches come running from behind
the porcelain facade.
I don't recognize myself anymore.
The mask has been on for too long.
I'm full of rage and lies.
I'm scared others can see it too.
I need another mask to hide this awful truth.
STAI LEGGENDO
darling, just breathe
PoesiaI hope this helps you remember that we are all human. We all go through life differently, and we all need to breathe in order to survive. So darling, just breathe.
