Behind the Mask

Curtains open wide

leaving all emotions and thoughts aside

Nothing matters now

All there is, is the start and ending bow

Audence leaves with the idea of the show being worthwhile

they especially loved her smile

Of course that is all they ever see

A girl like her, living a life that is full and free

Yet they never wonder what lies within

Beneath that cheery grin

Looks as though the mask did a job well done

hiding the darkness from everyon

Inside, her life is like a dark trail

Every obstacle she faces is something she could never prevail

Sometimes she wishes the pain would end

and yet although many attend

To hear the story of a girl with a beautiful glow

No one will know

No one will ask

What the story is behind her mask
