Broken Under The Mask

[Foetica]

You smile and ask how I am
I smile and say I’m fine
But you never peer too deeply
You never get too close
If you cared you’d notice
That the smile isn’t real
That there is no warmth
In my eyes
That there is only darkness
And that inside I’m
Screaming crying
I’m hurting and suffocating
That all I feel is Emptiness and Pain
I hold tightly to my mask
I don’t want you to see
That I’m not okay
That really I just want to
Feel alive inside
I don’t want you to see
But why can’t you see
That under my fair facade
Under this mask you see
That I’m truly Broken Inside

[Lazz]

@ClaireSheppard I understand, still beg to differ, though...

[Foetica]

@Tall-M go ahead hopefully it’s ignorance and not stupidity grins I’m kidding go ahead

[Foetica]

@Lazz I have a flair for dark things grins thanks for being a light to me

@ClaireSheppard Me when i sneeze under my mask and that i feel the snot

[Lazz]

@ClaireSheppard Isn't there also a southern saying about how "ya can't fix what ain't broken?" Scratched, dented, maybe even bruised, sure, but NOT broken

[Still_kicking]

@ClaireSheppard Broken... what no one sees... what no one wants to believe... always strong and willing to take on the world... but still broken on the inside... they don't want to see...

:clap: :clap: u can add these lines:

I was lost in my own masquerade:
Oh gad is it a sin to savour this tragedy?
Could you break this mask into past memories ?
But no ! simply caught in my own misery
Praying to find a fast recovery
Oh what a lie! Satan that was a lovely blasphemy!

[Still_kicking]

@thegodbrother i think that stand well alone... you both seem very talented with words... im basic cat in the hat lol

@ClaireSheppard I am Also Broken But Not one cares...This is Life Ma'am.

[Still_kicking]

@Samir770 i care.

[A Former User]

@Still_kicking Really Ma'am.

[Still_kicking]

@Samir770 yes. I do. I care. That may shock u but if u know what it feels like to be broken u care when others r too... but the broken hide and are hard to find because of the mask...

@Still_kicking you are Right..Can we talk?

[Foetica]

@Lazz their is a saying about that but there’s another saying to “if you can’t duct it fuck it!” giggles we southerners have lots and lots of sayings.
