The Girl Behind The Mask


Everyday is a battle, this world is not how it used to be. You cannot just go up to people and expect to be accepted for who you are, you will be devoured for such a foolish crime. High school is a mascarae behind every persons mask is a diffrent story the girl who wears the huge mask bright pink with lots of glitter and feathers goes home and hurries to her room because she just doesn't know what she did to make her so  father angry. She uses her make-up to cover up the scars and brusies but that doesn't heal the ones inside. At school she is envyed little does everybody at school know it is an act so nobody suspects anything. She looks in the mirror and sees a worthless girl. Little does she know those are the words of her father talking. She is Determined to get and and do something great with her life but the world does not consist of sunshine and rainbows- There are not happy endings to every story. She longs for the day where she can take off her mask and be accepted.
