“Behind the Scenes”

Behind the scenes
I reveal all
But today
I am hiding behind this mask
You see a smile on my face
My heart isn’t smiling
This person you see is fake
I won’t let you know the real one
If you come to close…
Ill back away

You don’t see my struggles
You don’t see my addictions
You don’t see the blood
You can’t see my pain
My tears are falling
But they are invisible to your eyes
My words I don’t say
I won’t let you hear them
My trust has been given away too much
I won’t let you have it
You don’t see my broken home
I won’t let you in it
You don’t see behind the scenes…
The real me.
