The mask

silentwishes

eyes full of innocence 

heart full of shame 

inside full of saddens 

her face is her disguise 

She walks the halls with friends 

but inside she walks alone 

never knowing what to say 

so she sits alone and hides it

    Sad and yet nicely written. When one needs to hide from others or self it is never good.

    What doesn't kill you makes you stronger.
    Well reflected in the poem.
