….the mask you wear.

Someone once said,
“Love takes off masks we fear we cannot live without…
yet know we cannot live within.”
I know the ghosts of your past still sleep lightly within,
but I need you to understand that
our love is the answer you seek.
Show me your scars
and I will help you to ease away the hurt and the pain.
It´s the hardest thing you will ever have to do,
but don´t let your demons hold you down.
Take off your mask…
be vulnerable.
I want to see the real you.
