masks

I wear masks to hide my true self Afraid they won't like who I am So I pretend to be someone else Just a facade, a sham I smile and laugh, but inside I cry Yearning for acceptance and love But I fear rejection, so I lie Hiding behind a mask, a glove I long to be authentic and true But the fear of judgment holds me back So I wear masks, pretending it's you Hoping to fill this empty lack I can't tell people who I am For fear they won't like me So I wear masks, a silent sham Just someone I wish to be But deep down, I long to be free 😔 To show the world my true face 😞 To be accepted for who I am, you see 😔 And finally find my place 😞 So I'll keep wearing masks, pretending to be 😔 Someone I'm not, just for now 😞 But one day, I'll break free 😔 And show the world my true self, somehow 😞 😔😞😔😞😔😞
