Behind the Mask

You can’t see me crying behind the mask.
You don’t know I’m sighing behind the mask.

Adorned to society’s standards,
For I am trying behind the mask.

I embellish with a painted smile,
Endlessly lying behind the mask.

My performance so believable,
You have ceased prying behind the mask.

The girl you know is a fallacy,
And she is dying behind the mask.
