Living behind the Mask

by rekhanshiraghava
My pleasant smile hides all my Tears,
my loud laugh hides all my Screams,
its been like this, for so many years,
I am sad and things are sadder, and is not how it appears.

I always looked content and happy,
with no care about the world around.
But i believed it sadly,
many things turned out wrong and untold.

No one know, what lies inside me,
they just know about my outer cover.
Wishing i could remove it, and be free,
and let everyone see, what is under.

But every day I practice,
smiling, right in front of mirror.
Then, that helps me in making,
my fake laugh clearer and clearer.

What is wrong? Are you depressed?
is all they are ever going to ask.
So I decided, I want to stay this way,
I started LIVING BEHIND THE MASK.
Let others and the author know if you liked it

Liked it alot?
