The Mask

There is a girl that wears a mask,
Mechanically shuffling about.
She paints her body with her blades,
And she carves imperfections out.

Behind the mask and bloodied art,
There lies a broken soul.
If you get past her metal shell,
You'll see a gaping hole.

No one sees that she's crying,
For her mask displays a smile.
She only yearns to take it off
For just a little while.
