Painted Face
January 12, 2012
You use make up to conceal many things...
A hidden past you try and forget,
a different personality you've
never set...
A tearful face you're ashamed to show,
for you fear you'll get judged for who you are on the inside.
That painted smile is placed on your face,
deceiving others with it's lace of lies,
hopeful that no one will look through your eyes
and see that person suffering on the inside...
