Beneath the Mask
I wear a mask of porcelain bright,158Please respect copyright.PENANAMLgqyvt574
painted smiles in borrowed light.158Please respect copyright.PENANAAedAzsWykS
Yet in the hush of midnight’s breath,158Please respect copyright.PENANAbmek7FK2eR
I taste the truth, I dance with death.
The words I speak, so light, so sweet,158Please respect copyright.PENANAs1YgQu824u
hide footsteps bruised on weary feet.158Please respect copyright.PENANA0pp9VPpeNc
A laugh that rings, a heart that cries,158Please respect copyright.PENANAp0zFKVWz5s
a dream that drowns in silver lies.
I turn away, the world won’t see158Please respect copyright.PENANAxpycST56fO
the war that rages inside me.158Please respect copyright.PENANAzvMZymMpnq
Yet in the dark, when I am still,158Please respect copyright.PENANAfhjagsOSP7
the shadows bend to match my will.
They hold my pain, they guard my scars,158Please respect copyright.PENANAgiV2zufSJT
they whisper truths beneath the stars.158Please respect copyright.PENANAp0TQQRax6k
And though the world may never ask,158Please respect copyright.PENANAbgAXIKv7NW
the night still knows—beneath the mask.
