We wear the mask that grins and lies,
It hides our cheeks and shades our eyes,—
This debt we pay to human guile;
With torn and bleeding hearts we smile,
And mouth with myriad subtleties.
Why should the world be over-wise,
In counting all our tears and sighs?
Nay, let them only see us, while
We wear the mask.
We smile, but, O great Christ, our cries
To thee from tortured souls arise.
We sing, but oh the clay is vile
Beneath our feet, and long the mile;
But let the world dream otherwise,
We wear the mask!
I come with no wrapping or pretty pink bows.
I am who I am, from my head to my toes.
F- Friends are precious gifts
R- Rare and hard to find
I- Invisible when life is
The best kinds of people are warm and kind.
They are always there and they never mind.
I sit here waiting
waiting for you to see
that time is running out
come o
I have a heart and it's quite broken.
I read your words as if they were spoken.
Y
I've got nothing left to say.
It's like the words ran away.
And I'
Leaves crackle and crunch beneath my feet
as l inhale the air that smells so sweet
<Girls!
They protect you!
Mind you, correct you!
In ways you never thought
I love how we
tease each other with
tantalizing words
throughout the day;
your eyes are so dreamy
your lips are so soft
your body is so lovely
why
