Beneath the Mask
I wear a mask of porcelain bright,271Please respect copyright.PENANAec2u2wKPIf
painted smiles in borrowed light.271Please respect copyright.PENANA1rZ0lWhsja
Yet in the hush of midnight’s breath,271Please respect copyright.PENANADuah9nDYL1
I taste the truth, I dance with death.
The words I speak, so light, so sweet,271Please respect copyright.PENANA7HZwqLaOk7
hide footsteps bruised on weary feet.271Please respect copyright.PENANAXCScAlECua
A laugh that rings, a heart that cries,271Please respect copyright.PENANAbmvNCJHv8B
a dream that drowns in silver lies.
I turn away, the world won’t see271Please respect copyright.PENANAA8Bslk3WOD
the war that rages inside me.271Please respect copyright.PENANAbLi7z7tMWS
Yet in the dark, when I am still,271Please respect copyright.PENANAAuJqfgXj57
the shadows bend to match my will.
They hold my pain, they guard my scars,271Please respect copyright.PENANAP7QygbA1Qf
they whisper truths beneath the stars.271Please respect copyright.PENANAieXXd8XAwm
And though the world may never ask,271Please respect copyright.PENANAyFcLEuuYtv
the night still knows—beneath the mask.
