Cover up

‘Lyss

Cover the bags with concealer 

dry the tears with a tissue

splash your face with cold water and get back out there 

no one wants to see you like this 

vulnerable 

raw.

so cover it up 

choke back the tears 

smile as big as you can 

because

no one wants to see you like this
