• The Unmasking

    From this pencil
    The words seem to flow
    I pour out my heart
    Let the whole world know
    I'm imperfect
    I no longer desire the lie
    I'm letting go the mask
    I'll let them see me cry

    This image in the mirror
    Oh, it's so distorted
    This false illusion
    Their views so contorted
    I'm breaking off
    Coming out with the real me
    Simply turn away
    If you don't like what you see

    No longer false
    Hiding my emotions away
    I'm stepping out of the shadows
    Letting go the fake facade
    The brokenness visible
    All the guilty regret and shame
    I'll show the burden I carry
    I'll no longer hide the pain.
