Just Another Thing

Some people think
'Sorry' or 'no offence'
Makes all the difference
And make everything Ok
It might for some people
But for me
It's just another thing
Another thing to hide
So no one else can see
Behind the fake smiles
The fake laughs
My mask
I wear it so well
It's beggining to look natural
But I'm running out rapidly
My mask bursts once a day
It's getting too much for it to bear
But what happens when I can't cover up?
When I'm exsposed to the world
Will the real and fake smiles turn to tears?
Friends to enimies?
Will I ever stop?
Stop hiding?
Stop crying?
Start living?
Probably not
