It becomes hard to face
It becomes hard to see the face
The face that sees you without flinching
The face that you put on when you’re all by yourself
I wear a maskI wear a mask
The mask is intact
You see no cracks on the outside
I’m smoothexpressionless
You can’t read me
Behind the mask I die over and over
I scream from behind the mask
Now the mask is cracking
My truth comes outmy mask falls to the floor
I see the face that I got
I see myselfuglyso uglyit’s ugly
