Mommy

I can't look at my pain
I can't keep it inside
I have made a new face
A new place to hide

She'll be all sparkly
All shiny and new
This new girl I've made
A better daughter for you

She may have my hair
My skin and my eyes
But I promise dear mother
She'll keep up the lies

She'll smile and wave
I'll be out of sight
My scars and my bruises
Won't see the light

We'll keep the facade
They won't see me break
Next year at my funeral
A grieving mother you'll fake
