✨Painted walls✨

I feel empty
And sad
Deep
Inside

You won't see it
Cause I've painted my face
Created some kind of a mask
To hide my true emotions

Just to fake
My real feelings
Are buried
Deep inside

Unless I allow it
You won't find
Well unless the paint washes off
Then my mask disappears

My only shield
Against
This shitty world
Fortunately some masks lasts longer

Wish I had long lasting paint
Or a permanent mask
To hide myself
Cause I'm just an ugly truth

Building walls
All around me
So no one can
Break me free

Then paint it all
Over again
Cover all insecurities and wounds
And not to mention, imperfections
