Masquerade

Im all alone. In this place called home. You see me happy, but all my smiles are fake. I lock my heart inside myself for others sake. I want someone to just reach out to me and grab my hand. Because in reality I just can't stand. I try to tell myself its not that bad. Even though you the greatest friend I ever had. You only seen half my heart. I'm still not ready to show you the other part. I put my mask on in the presence of others. But on the inside I just feel smothered. My mask goes away when no one else is around. In front of people my gaurd is never let down. The mask is invisible, but I feel it starting to crack. You were there this whole time, thanks for not turning your back. I'm through with this game of black and white. I want to show my true colors, its a beautiful sight. This whole time you've just been played. So I take my mask off to end this masquerade.
