Unraveling the Mask of a Little Girl’s Reflection

Unraveling the Mask of a Little Girl’s Reflection

By: iced.cadaver

Is she happy or sad?

No one really knows

Behind those fancy facades

Big smiles and happy faces

What’s underneath that skin?

That you keep on hiding

Is it something you don’t like?

Someone you don’t know? Or only you, hiding.

Hiding from whom and for what?

Is she hiding or just, afraid

That what may be beyond that mask,

People will not like and easily judge

The mask she wears

Hides the twisted pains and ill-forgotten bleakness

Living like a clown

Where everybody only notices her charms

She thinks she’s strong enough,

To conceal herself within,

But if you will only try and see,

You’ll know there still lots missing.

Until then she’ll keep on smiling.
Hiding behind the mask she’s wearing.
Hoping one day she could truly smile,
Till then, she’ll  be here.. waiting.
