Behind Me
Everyday I wear a mask
A single facade to hide my past
The never-ending daily task
Always I will make them think
Nothing wrong, life doesn't stink
Daily though I wish to sink.
Beside my lungs I hold a box
Escaping light with 50 locks.
Concealed inside, there it knocks
Only I may hold the key
Most don't see the real me
Eluding eyes that try to see.
From day to day I try to hide
And only wish that I could have died
The people only see my happy side.
