Masquerade

One more tear glistens down my cheek.
So much hurt I've held today.
So much pain held up inside of me.
Ignore them all throughout the day.
Suck it up and put a fake smile on your face.
Don't let them see the pain you hold inside.
Wait till tonight when you're alone and can hide.
Then let it come out, let it all go.
Cry yourself to sleep, let the tears flow.
In the morning, start a new day.
Put on your fake smile, continue in your masquerade.
Build up the hurt again and hide the pain.
Wait till night falls and start the process over again.

Telling the truth

Persona is derived from a Greek word that literally translates into the word “mask”. We wear this mask at all times, to conform and be accepted. It is only love, however joyful or painful it may be, that shatters that mask and reveals the truth.

Sometimes it is good to show the world the truth. It is a process of healing.

Peace,

Dolan
