My Poems

Mask of Happiness

I'm running from my thoughts

But I'm not going far.

Is it me, is it them

Or everything going on?

I don't know where to go

I can't run I can't hide.

I wear a mask of happiness

But I just really want to die.

The world's so cold

The things untold

Are the dangerous things

Keeping us from growing old.

I tell no one

And try to hide 

All the terrible thoughts

That I feel inside.

'Cause no one understands

But I'm really tryin', man!

Got one really silent phone

God! I'm so alone!

No one knows the things I've done 

Trying to stop this pain, oops, the bell has rung.

Class dismissed, 

But remember this

Someone in your life

Could be wearing that mask

Of Happiness
