Masked Lies

Holding emotion in
Behind a glass mask
 Know everyone-
 Thinks its a picture
Sometimes its the truth 
No-one believes it anymore
 Just keep holding it up
Never let go
 The mask illusioned as bulletproof
 Bullets whiz right through
Shattering the image built up for the world
Fight hold on to the shards in your hand
Glue expectations and reality
Meld in a messy frame
Hardened soul cries blood
Building bricks of tears
 Know its all worth it
Keep your eye on the prize 
Moments' aren't lost in the eyes
 Shattered glass reflects them 
Images distorted in puddles
Smokescreens stab lungs
Gasping for future
Eyes unfocused
Framed in 
Masks of lies
