Masks
Masks
Everyone has one
they put them on in the morning
trying to show the world
that they aren't cracked or broken
They put on a mask
to make people think there ok
but the mask just makes them worse
they wonder why no one cares
but they don't know that
nobody can see through there mask
They take off there mask
when they are alone
and no one can see the cracks
how close we all are to breaking
the masks hide us from each other
They clean the mask
from the tears that stain
the outisde and let us know
how they really feel
how much pain they feel
They choose a mask
to try and fool the world
try to make us think
their really ok
but we know that their not
We take off the mask
we rip off their mask
and we see the pain and hurt
and we comfort and hold
letting them know we care
They choose to let the pain show
they get rid of there masks
letting the sun shine on their
pain and suffering but
also on the happiness and their dreams
We help them
we let them fly and soar
and when they fall we help them up
when they soar we admire them
when they fall we consol and comfort them
We live as one world
all of us helping to
remove the masks
that people wear all around the world
