Beneath the Mask
I wear a mask of porcelain bright,254Please respect copyright.PENANA0GMERYHwko
painted smiles in borrowed light.254Please respect copyright.PENANABbo1fa7zog
Yet in the hush of midnight’s breath,254Please respect copyright.PENANAb673GyhBwc
I taste the truth, I dance with death.
The words I speak, so light, so sweet,254Please respect copyright.PENANApLTNygmWrc
hide footsteps bruised on weary feet.254Please respect copyright.PENANAPZUBjI4wLK
A laugh that rings, a heart that cries,254Please respect copyright.PENANAIMPP9jTmwK
a dream that drowns in silver lies.
I turn away, the world won’t see254Please respect copyright.PENANA54E1pdzRdx
the war that rages inside me.254Please respect copyright.PENANApyBYwB4YWS
Yet in the dark, when I am still,254Please respect copyright.PENANAK6iLpQ9z2F
the shadows bend to match my will.
They hold my pain, they guard my scars,254Please respect copyright.PENANAKBCwWhdiRm
they whisper truths beneath the stars.254Please respect copyright.PENANAcnD9lNh3aw
And though the world may never ask,254Please respect copyright.PENANAkVevqQ6kID
the night still knows—beneath the mask.
