Beneath the Mask
I wear a mask of porcelain bright,317Please respect copyright.PENANABUeXav1qU8
painted smiles in borrowed light.317Please respect copyright.PENANA4t8dJ3DPzA
Yet in the hush of midnight’s breath,317Please respect copyright.PENANARKQNK7cO2Z
I taste the truth, I dance with death.
The words I speak, so light, so sweet,317Please respect copyright.PENANAdJSyQrvGj5
hide footsteps bruised on weary feet.317Please respect copyright.PENANApm2tHd5apS
A laugh that rings, a heart that cries,317Please respect copyright.PENANAN0js2BFI7N
a dream that drowns in silver lies.
I turn away, the world won’t see317Please respect copyright.PENANAciS65muLyX
the war that rages inside me.317Please respect copyright.PENANANG6SpwoUJC
Yet in the dark, when I am still,317Please respect copyright.PENANA9Dm8qQMqva
the shadows bend to match my will.
They hold my pain, they guard my scars,317Please respect copyright.PENANA7L2yxULKIX
they whisper truths beneath the stars.317Please respect copyright.PENANATI9zx7xzBF
And though the world may never ask,317Please respect copyright.PENANAYCrtRpO05k
the night still knows—beneath the mask.
