Beneath the Mask
I wear a mask of porcelain bright,341Please respect copyright.PENANArBvHiN7Tjy
painted smiles in borrowed light.341Please respect copyright.PENANAIypkvS4Zr1
Yet in the hush of midnight’s breath,341Please respect copyright.PENANA9K7UkRtSIV
I taste the truth, I dance with death.
The words I speak, so light, so sweet,341Please respect copyright.PENANAQuYbKXxK6l
hide footsteps bruised on weary feet.341Please respect copyright.PENANAdlbioFY5ZB
A laugh that rings, a heart that cries,341Please respect copyright.PENANALUWgQkYabX
a dream that drowns in silver lies.
I turn away, the world won’t see341Please respect copyright.PENANA1KmOaUw1go
the war that rages inside me.341Please respect copyright.PENANAt15PDCums9
Yet in the dark, when I am still,341Please respect copyright.PENANA3xAZeJean9
the shadows bend to match my will.
They hold my pain, they guard my scars,341Please respect copyright.PENANAcvb8rfBJC0
they whisper truths beneath the stars.341Please respect copyright.PENANATBd6OuG7qz
And though the world may never ask,341Please respect copyright.PENANAMcV1PL8PXW
the night still knows—beneath the mask.
