people sometimes wear a mask,
we don't always knows why,
but most of the time,
it's to protect the people they love.
to protect them from all the pain,
they have to live with every day.
to protect them from all the thoughts,
that run through their minds.
no-one can see through a mask,
it's all just an illusion.
but one thing is fragile,
that is the look in the eyes.
no matter how thick the mask is,
there is always a glance.
the eyes reflect,
what the heart fears to say.
they think it helps us,
maybe it does.
but it hurts to know,
some-one has to wear a mask.
just to let us be,
happy and strong.
but the eyes sell them out.
they reflect their inner pain.
