concealed

I've gone through adequate measures to beat the monster that resides within me
This thing lay secreted beneath the surface of my skin
Readying to rupture out at any which moment
This drapery consists of a mask that rests
Itself on the surface of my face
But conceals my inner core.
My story is composed of a chemical
Concoction that portrays my background
Everyday people are dying. Everyday people are lying. Just stop trying to win this race. Just make the world a better place.
Emoticon this, emoticon that,
Controlling the posts, controlling the likes.
Consice...simple...no questions asked.
Hiding behind our smiling faces.
You can see my thumbs up.
But am I really there?
Oh please,
Pay no attention to me.
I'll just sit back here,
All quiet-like,
And continue to pull all the strings.
The world's a complicated place,
And Mama didn't raise a fool,
Do not show jealousy in the light of a mischievous mirror
For that same mirror will glare back at you in madness.
