Masked Smiles


Living two life's, I flicker between the two, Pretending the corrupt is nonexistent. I put on my mask, Hiding my imperfections, And shunting the cruel reality into a dream. They become faded memories of the past, Hidden and forgotten. Almost as if they don't exist Until it is time to switch back, And to remember the secluded truth.
