This is written for someone who wanted to tell the whole world who they are but cannot.

I am me

Almost everybody knows my name

But I’m not after fame

Others know me by face

I just don’t know if they are pleased

I decided to make a mask

Cause I don’t wants others to ask

This mask is colorful

And they say it’s beautiful

I use to be a friend

Someone you can depend

I use to be human

As meek as everyone

You can always see me smile

But did you stop to think for a while?

What is on my mind?

Or what do I feel inside?

Happiness is what I seek

But all that I have are tears

Now, I started to sound like a freak

But still they can’t hear

I use to wear this mask

That hides the frail

Because the truth is, I’m weak

Yet, did anybody care?
