I always seem so happy,
Nobody really knows my hobby.
But you should know sadly,
Many things go untold.

My laugh hides my screams,
Things aren't as they seem.
Yet everybody seems to ask,
Why I hide behind a mask.

They only know my cover,
Wish they could see what's under.
Life is so unfair and narrow,
Instead I practice my smiles in the mirror.

          As each day bleeds into dusk
