[I]The Face I Hide
This mask I wear hides all that I feel deep inside my very core that you cannot see.
Behind this facade that I carry - lies the pain and suffering - that is what I call me.
Broken dreams that have never been realized lay now in tattered shreds in my past.
Hopes, wishes and desires that I thought might be but somehow never did they last.
Yet I smile and laugh and show the world my best face with never a sign of sorrow.
I am the one everyone else turns to when they want to be assured a brighter tomorrow.
None of you are to blame.
It is me who hides this shame.
I want no pity or sympathy given me.
All I want is of this burden to be free.
To be able to shed my fears and pain.
To be able to believe that I can love again.
This mask I wear hides more than you could ever begin to discover in a dozen years.
It is the mirror that reflects my image without the saddened eyes and falling tears.
You never once asked though what it was that I felt when all was said and done.
I thought that if anyone would be able to see the real me - You - would be that one.
But that too is another burden that I shall carry buried deep within this character I portray.
In the meantime, this mask remains my only comfort and forever true to me it shall stay.
None of you could have known.
You saw only what you were shown.
None of you searched any deeper that this.
All is would have taken is a simple word or kiss.
To shed me of this weighty burden for a while.
To finally bring to my face a real and genuine smile.[/I]
