Beneath the Mask
I wear a mask of porcelain bright,293Please respect copyright.PENANAbrRhFJLu0r
painted smiles in borrowed light.293Please respect copyright.PENANAT5090AXRW2
Yet in the hush of midnight’s breath,293Please respect copyright.PENANAU8PnasMKJZ
I taste the truth, I dance with death.
The words I speak, so light, so sweet,293Please respect copyright.PENANATFLI0epzhD
hide footsteps bruised on weary feet.293Please respect copyright.PENANAKAfNRPvnou
A laugh that rings, a heart that cries,293Please respect copyright.PENANAer3K2flIi1
a dream that drowns in silver lies.
I turn away, the world won’t see293Please respect copyright.PENANANchS6Td8i9
the war that rages inside me.293Please respect copyright.PENANAeiIo6puYYP
Yet in the dark, when I am still,293Please respect copyright.PENANAiNYUkHr786
the shadows bend to match my will.
They hold my pain, they guard my scars,293Please respect copyright.PENANA9OtUW6QDjQ
they whisper truths beneath the stars.293Please respect copyright.PENANAmJTIOBu9uu
And though the world may never ask,293Please respect copyright.PENANABxqM8YMxGr
the night still knows—beneath the mask.
