Beneath the Mask
I wear a mask of porcelain bright,334Please respect copyright.PENANAPfKvuHmPRm
painted smiles in borrowed light.334Please respect copyright.PENANA1TNhQyMnSW
Yet in the hush of midnight’s breath,334Please respect copyright.PENANAultpMbiSx4
I taste the truth, I dance with death.
The words I speak, so light, so sweet,334Please respect copyright.PENANAXirtCr6a0W
hide footsteps bruised on weary feet.334Please respect copyright.PENANA2ZYvslOwE4
A laugh that rings, a heart that cries,334Please respect copyright.PENANAcitrCiEree
a dream that drowns in silver lies.
I turn away, the world won’t see334Please respect copyright.PENANAMkoC6kcDPJ
the war that rages inside me.334Please respect copyright.PENANA7YXVSq8YmB
Yet in the dark, when I am still,334Please respect copyright.PENANAVvQObsdXU3
the shadows bend to match my will.
They hold my pain, they guard my scars,334Please respect copyright.PENANAr6fk9Qx8Qt
they whisper truths beneath the stars.334Please respect copyright.PENANAryK74uERQL
And though the world may never ask,334Please respect copyright.PENANAwxlM8BVSCv
the night still knows—beneath the mask.
